“Mmmm – nice!” That was dad’s reaction when he first took a bite of these sloppy joes. There’s enough of this filling to make 7 sandwiches, but the filling tastes so good you might want to eat it straight from skillet! We often enjoy these open-face – the topping piled on just one half of a whole-grain bun or English muffin.
Thai Sloppy Joes
Ingredients
- 1 medium - zucchini, chopped into bite-size pieces
- 1 medium - yellow summer squash, chopped into bite-size pieces
- 1 medium - eggplant, chopped into bite-size pieces

- 3 Tbs - peanut butter, creamy or chunky (we like chunky)
- 1 Tbs - lime juice
- 2 Tbs - brown sugar (packed)

Instructions
- In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, dry sauté the zucchini, yellow squash, and eggplant for about 5 minutes, or until tender.
