More About This Recipe

  • So this is what's going on. Sloppy Joes, in LASAGNA FORM, in the slow cooker. Bam. Slow cooking in the summertime is the way to GO, yo. No hot muthah oven blasting your house to sky high temps. No hair collapsing when you open the oven door due to the devil whipping his tail around on it. This is so easy. You prep your Joe mix in a pan, then slide it between some no-boil noodles, top the whole thing with an obnoxious amount of shredded cheddar and push "go". Walk away for hours. Watch some TV. Do some gardening. Take a nap. Who cares. It's your life. The good news is you don't have to fix your hair. Because you remember the whole devil thing? He's not here because you're not using the ove– never mind. Let's get sloppy!
