Ingredients
  

  • 8.5 oz corn bread mix (1 box)
  • 1 egg
  • cup milk
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ cup onion (chopped)
  • 15 oz tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. 
  • In a skillet cook ground beef and diced onion on medium heat. Add seasoning salt to ground beef. Cook ground beef until fully brown. Stir in tomato sauce, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce.
  • In a separate bowl mix together your cornbread, egg, and milk. (My cornbread mix called for 1 egg and ⅓ cup milk, double-check your box and adjust as needed)
  • Place your sloppy joe mix into a casserole dish. Spoon in cornbread mix evenly on top of sloppy joe mix. (Yes the uncooked cornbread mix)
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until you can poke the top with a fork and it comes out clean.

Notes

How to Freeze Sloppy Joe Casserole:
For this recipe, I freeze it without the cornbread topping. I cook and mix the meat according to package directions. Once cooled place it in a freezer dish and into the freezer. This should be good in the freezer for 4-6 months. Once you are ready to cook remove from the freezer and place in the fridge 24 hours before cooking to allow to thaw. Add to a casserole dish then mix cornbread mix and place it on top. Cook according to instructions.
