Sloppy Joe Turnovers





1 pound lean ground beef
1 cup chopped onion (about 1 medium)
1/4 cup ketchup
2 Tablespoons chili sauce
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 can (12 ounces) refrigerated biscuits


Cook ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until beef is bronwned and crumbly and onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Drain.

Add ketchup, chili sauce and vinegar to beef and onion; mix well. Cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Cool 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat over to 375°F. Separate dough into 10 bixcuits. Press or roll each biscuit on lightly floured surface to a 6-inch round.

Spoon about 1/4 cup beef mixture onto half of each round. Fold round in half over filling. Press edges together carefully to seal. Place on baking sheet.

Bake turnovers until golden, 15-18 minutes. Serve warm.


Helpful Tips

It is important to let the beef mixture cool; if the filling is too hot, it can melt the biscuits.

Mix 'n' Match

For and easy casserole, pour the ground beef mixture into a 2-quart baking dish and top with prepared corn bread batter. Bake at 350°F until corn bread is golden, about 15 minutes.
