Preparation
- Make the slaw: In a medium bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, mustard, salt, and pepper. Toss well, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Make the sloppy joes: Heat the oil in a large, high-walled pan over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and sauté for 2–3 minutes, or until translucent. Add the garlic, chili powder, paprika, thyme, tomato paste, and dates. Stir to combine and cook for 2–3 minutes, until the tomato paste begins to brown.
- Add the turkey and sauté until cooked through, about 3–5 minutes, stirring throughout. Add the tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine.
- Add the shredded carrots and zucchini and cook down into the sauce, about 3–5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce, if using.
- Scoop the sloppy joe mixture onto toasted buns and top with the slaw.
- Enjoy!

Tasted sooooo bad, I had high hopes, due to the other healthy tasty recipes, but this tastes nothing like a sloppy Joe. The combinations of spices and ingredients, makes for a very disgusting meal, and both of my kids felt sick after trying. I’m seriously bummed out at this tasty, please either take this off, or revise it. Thank you

my kid loved it and so did I! I read the tips before making it and omitted the vinegar from the sloppy joe mixture which was a good call. I also used six dates instead of three, and I used Mayo instead of oil for the slaw (so sue me!). overall, delicious and fun to make!

I made these with ground chicken instead of turkey. AMAZING.

Tasted great! I halved the paprika, chili powder and thyme. Made a double batch of the sauce to make it extra sloppy. if you have a sensitive palette, I'd leave out the thyme entirely. the coleslaw had a little too much pepper for my taste but overall, thumbs up!

Our family decided we would cut the apple cider vinegar in half, and maybe add more pepper. We also topped our with siracha. We like things spicy!

While this doesn't taste like a traditional sloppy joe, it was still tasty. If I was introduced to this first, I'd think a traditional sloppy joe was way too sweet. Good meal!

I used sweet basil tomato sauce so I didn't need to add dates or sugar for sweetness. My first sloppy joe and it came out pretty good.

These were SO GOOD! Tips: we used one zucchini instead of two and cut the salt in half. Topped with mozzarella cheese. Super easy and we will DEFINITELY be making again!

I doubled the seasoning, added chicken stock. I also added yellow and orange bell peppers for added texture. It was quite a decent dish. My family enjoyed it. I also added tator tots and krinkle fries as a side. Was not a fan of the coleslaw. It turned out too vinegar(ie), so I added monk fruit sweetener to level it out.
