So I'm trying to branch out. I made vegetarian sloppy joes with portobello mushrooms to warm up for Linda's ground beef version. Her special recipe, with a satisfying balance of sweetness and zippy onion flavor, is one of the best I've eaten.
To her credit, I photographed the sammies on day two, so they were sloppier the first time around than in these photos. Did your mom make sloppy joes when you were growing up? Tell me about her recipe, and check out more sloppy shots.Sloppy Joes

Not my mom, actually. I don't think she made sloppy joes very often — probably because I wasn't especially fond of them, due to my aversion to ketchup. But Andrew's mom is a sloppy joe making pro, so on a recent visit to San Francisco, we requested a command performance.

'Wich of the Week: Portobello Mushroom Sloppy Joe
When it comes to meaty sandwiches, it's hard to get much meatier than a sloppy joe. But with National Vegetarian Month on the horizon, you can enjoy a kinder, gentler, and healthier version of the old Manwich. Made with hearty portobello mushrooms flavored with bell peppers, onions, tomato paste, and a touch of spice, these vegetarian sloppy joes don't taste like beef, but in sentiment and sloppiness, they do the trick.
