- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 (15 oz) can Manwich Sloppy Joe Sauce
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Make Cornbread Batter: In a large bowl, combine corn muffin mix, eggs, and milk. Stir until well blended. Set aside.
- Make Sloppy Joe Filling: Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain excess grease. Add Manwich sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.

Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef.
- If you don’t have Manwich Sloppy Joe Sauce, you can use another brand or make your own sloppy joe sauce from scratch.
- For a cheesier casserole, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the sloppy joe mixture before adding the cornbread topping.
