turkey sloppy joes

i have never attempted to make sloppy joes in our almost ten years of marriage because my husband told me the first week of our marriage that he didn't care one bit if i never made them.  and since i don't particularly care for them either, i haven't been sad about that.  when i came across this recipe, however, i thought that this one just might change our opinion about sloppy joes....and it did!  now we can add sloppy joes to the menu now and then!  from everyday food magazine.

ingredients

1/2 medium onion, diced small
1 medium yam, peeled and diced small
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb ground turkey
14oz diced tomatoes, drained
1/3 C ketchup
2 T worcestershire
hamburger or slider buns

directions

heat 1 T olive oil over med-high.  add onion and yam and cook til soft, about 8 min.  add garlic and saute about 30 sec; season with salt and pepper.  add turkey and cook til browned.  add tomatoes, ketchup and woscestershire and simmer 5 min.  voila!
