These past few weeks have been really busy! For times like these, when you don’t know if you are coming or going, I love simple recipes. These Taco Sloppy Joes will be one of my ‘go to’ recipes for those extra busy times.
Delicious, easy ingredients, and the kids love it. Plus, they are so easy to prepare, the kids could make them for themselves without needing much help.
I had an extra pound of hamburger in the fridge that I needed to use up, but we were not in the mood for cheeseburgers again. I thought about making tacos, but we didn’t have any tortillas. However, we did have hamburger buns. I thought… why not Taco Sloppy Joes?
Taco Sloppy Joes
1 pound Ground Beef
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon Onion Powder
1/2 – 1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 – 1 teaspoon Cumin
1 cup Salsa
Grated Cheese
Sour Cream
Hamburger Buns
Add the ground beef to a frying pan over medium heat. Start to break up the ground beef with a wooden spoon and sprinkle with the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and cumin. Continue to cook until the ground beef has browned nicely and is cook through. Drain off excess grease if necessary.
Stir in the salsa and heat through.
Toast hamburger buns if you wish. Add some ground beef mixture to a bun, top with cheese and sour cream, or your favorite taco toppings.

My kiddos would love this Tex Mex twist on sloppy joes. You received the most clicks last week, over at Simple Supper Tuesday. We hope you can join us again, starting Monday night at 8pm EST.
Awesome! Thank you so much! 🙂
I remember a long time ago Taco Bell – had Bell Burgers which were not quite as fancy as this recipe – but as a seven year old – I loved them…(note: That was when there was only one Taco Bell in Houston)
I don't remember seeing Bell Burgers here in California. It's possible we had them here and I just don't remember. LOL! (My favorite Taco Bell item was the Enchirito when I was a kid) 🙂
