The filling - kidney beans and lots of celery, carrots, green pepper tomatoes, and onions flavored with chili pepper and vinegar. When this is hot and savory, spoon into hollowed out Kaiser rolls and dig in.

I was hoping I would like this but didn't. It's nothing like sloppy joe. It's like eating beans on a bun.

This recipe reminded me of the sloppy joes that my mother-in-law used to make. I thought it came out quite well. I followed the other reviewers recommendations and doubled the amount of onion, green pepper, carrots and garlic. I skipped the celery and added a red pepper for that. I also left the amount of kidney beans stay the same. I used 6 fresh roma tomatoes rather than canned. Finally, I used about 1.25 tablespoons of chili powder and cut the amount of black pepper to about 1/4 teaspoon. This is a very fast recipe to prepare and I will definitely make it again in the future. Thanks, KDCG for sharing it.

Delicious! I am a vegetarian and a lazy cook, so finding easy recipes that I can make is a challenge. This was perfect. I did omit the onions, but followed the recipe exactly. It was so good I made it 2 nights in a row! This will definitely be added to my recipe rotation.

Not all that like sloppy joes, in my opinion, but very tasty nonetheless!

This is one of the best veg recipes you can serve to a mixed crowd! Serve with corn chips and cole slaw and you have a great meal for young and old! This is one of my favorites!

I thought this meal was delicious! Easy to make, filling and tasty. My children loved it! I added more vinegar and tomato paste to the receipe and more of the veggies. My kids like to eat it on a hotdog bun! I did not miss the meat in this typically meaty meal.

This is great! Spicy but great. I honestly don't think it tastes much like sloppy joe's but I am certainly not complaining! It somehow reminds my of a shrimp curry dish my dad made when I was a kid.

I was very disappointed in this recipe as written. The texture was great and I was excited to find a vegetarian recipe that didn't call for TVP but the flavor on this one just wasn't there. It basically tasted like tomato paste with a chili powder after taste. Once I added some BBQ sauce, the flavor greatly improved. The next time I make this, I'll use all of the same veggies but use BBQ sauce and catchup!

I added a little bit of Worcester sauce to make these taste more sloppy-joe-ish; some liquid smoke might be good too. Other than that, very delicious. My boyfriend ate 3 before he noticed they were meatless!

This was a great dish. We did find that the spices were way too much. We will have to cut back a lot when we make this again. Once you got past the heat it was very good. Will make it again for sure!

Absolutely delicious! Followed the recipe except for the suggestion to double the vinegar--that turned out to be a little too much for my tastes.

This was good, but way more like a veggie chili than a sloppy joe. I loved how inexpensive it was. I already had the spices, onion and celery, bought everything else and some nice big wheat rolls for around $8.00. It also went well in a wheat pita for smaller portions. Also it was just as good as a leftover.

Not a hit, but I thought they were good. I sprinkled a little bit of sugar on my portion which took the bite off the off taste from the tomato paste.

At first I thought this would just be an okay dish to try just for the heck of it...I had no idea it was going to be such a hit. I served this on "everything" topped buns with sliced jalapenos and sharp cheddar and OM it was soooo good. Check the seasoning as you go on this (as on every recipe really, everyone's tastes are different) and that will probably save you from over doing it.

made this just like the recipe stated, bought bagged onion/celery/carrot already chopped, this was super quick with pre-chopped veggies and my husband LOVED it, great recipe if your looking for hearty vegetarian meal that's quick and tasty.

Very good. Trying to eat healther so this is a good start. Normally dont like kidney beans so we smashed them w/ a fork making a thicker batch. Would definitely make again.

So good! I added more vinegar (1.5T total) because that's really what gives it that sloppy joe flavor. I didn't see a problem with the chili powder, but went light on the black pepper. I only made one batch and it was way too little. Overall, really really good, and easy! Thanks for the recipe!

this was great. My family is never excited about vegetarian night, but since I'm a vegetarian we do it once a week. They loved this one. We will definately make it often and double the recipe from now on.
