Looking for a fun weeknight dinner idea? Look no further than this easy, filling, and wholesome Sloppy Joe Quesadilla Recipe!

Did you grow up eating sloppy joes? I sure did. I’ve known about Manwich for as long as I can remember, and there is so much nostalgia wrapped up in the brand. Manwich would like to be part of your family’s memories too, so why not have a Manwich Monday next week (or every week)? If you do meatless monday, never fear! Manwich doesn’t actually contain any meat, and you could mix it up with meatless crumble for a vegetarian sloppy joe. I used ground turkey in these sloppy joe quesadillas, but I have been using meatless “ground meat” more and more in pastas, nachos, and more. It would be perfect in this recipe!

The nice thing about sloppy joes (and sloppy joe quesadillas) is that they take two hands to eat, so it’s impossible to text and eat this dinner. (This one-handed stunt was just because I needed one hand on the camera. It was risky at best.) Turn off your phones and enjoy each other at the family dinner table with this easy, cheesy, messy-licious meal!

To make you even more excited to dig into a big ol’ sloppy joe, I have a giveaway for you! Enter below for a chance to win a fun Manwich Mealtime Prize Pack including a branded spoon, branded reusable tote, stainless steel sauce pan, a $50 VISA card (for grocery purchases), and of course three cans of Manwich (one of each variety)! I’ve seen my fair share of prize packs, and this one is really awesome. The pot has a spout and slotted lid for draining and the silicone spoon/spatula is nice and sturdy. I’m excited to be able to give one to a reader. Good luck!

Must be 18 years or older and live in the US to enter for a chance to win. Giveaway ends Friday, January 29, 2016 at 9am PST. See entry form for complete rules and conditions.

I think I’d try the pulled chicken in the slow cooker. I never thought about using it with chicken, it sounds great. I’d probably make enough for a couple of nights & make it in to quesadillas the second night.

I would love to make the Leftover Turkey Sloppy Joes recipe! I’ll be fixing a Turkey Breast real soon and this would be a perfect way to use some of the leftovers :)
Linda Szymoniak says
I always keep at least one can of Manwich on hand at all times. I love eating just basic Sloppy Joes made with it, and I’ve used canned biscuits to make little foldovers with the Sloppy Joe meat inside. I’d like to make the Sloppy Joe Slider Pull Aparts for one of my daughter’s get-togethers with her friends.
Andi Gleeson says
Ooh, those foldovers sound so good. Thanks for the idea, Linda! Enjoy your Sunday!
Denise E. says

At first glance, Manwich® Marinated Beer Can Chicken . Not something I’d consider normally, never say never. I’m a sucker for roast chicken, always good for leftovers.

I was expecting a bunch of recipes that all resembled a Sloppy Joe sandwich, but they have all the bases covered. My favorite would have to be the sloppy joe cornbread bake.

Yeah, who knew Manwich is so versatile! Thanks, David!
Sandy Headtke says
One of the first would be Sloppy Joe Dip. Great for football munchies
