This homemade sloppy joe casserole serves 6 people and takes only 45 minutes from start to finish.

To make this sloppy joe casserole, I started by browning some ground beef in a large frying pan along with some diced onions.

While the ground beef was cooking, I combined some ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar and onion powder in a small mixing bowl.

Once the ground beef was fully cooked, I drained the grease from the pan.

Then I added the sauce to the pan with the meat.

I stirred until all of the ground beef was coated in sauce and then removed the pan from the heat.

I spread twelve slices of bread with margarine and then cut them all in half.

I placed half of the bread slices, margarine side down, in a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish.

Then I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the bread.

I spooned the ground beef mixture over the cheese and spread it out evenly.

Then I sprinkled more shredded cheese on top.

I placed the remaining slices of bread, margarine side up, on top of the cheese.

Then I baked the casserole until the bread was golden brown.

I sliced and served the sloppy joe casserole immediately after removing it from the oven.

This dish is best when eaten right away so that the bread will be a bit crispy.

After refrigerating and reheating the bread will become a bit soggy.

This delicious casserole is a fun twist on the classic sloppy joe sandwich.
