Chad and I have really caught this travel bug. It is actually funny because we are the type of people that enjoy 'home life' so much.
We generally prefer eating at home over eating out. Entertaining at home is our favorite way to get together with friends.
But, for the last few months, we can't seem to get enough of traveling and touring the best food each city has to offer. It has been amazing.
And the bug has bitten us again so we are working extra hard so we can take a few days off to head to Sedona. Have you ever been?
It is so amazing! I can't wait to share our trip with you. I am sure we will have some fabulous food photos and red rock mountain photos to share with you.
We are going to catch a glimpse of what fall really looks like. We only have 2 seasons in Phoenix: hibernating season and tourist season, and neither of them offers pretty colored trees.
Of course in the hub bub of getting ready for the trip, Lazy Day cooking is king!
I had a hankering for Sloppy Joe's and not a lot of time to prepare dinner so I put a quick and easy spin on my regular recipe and came up with these sensational Joe's.
My favorite meatloaf has a sweet ketchup topping that is out of this world! I add balsamic vinegar for a little zip and I tell you it adds just the right touch of sweet/tangy and a hint of smokiness. Combining those flavors with my sloppy Joe's really kicked them up a notch.
Chad and I devoured these Lazy Day Sloppy Joe's every time I made them and I know you are going to love them too.

What you will need to make this Easy Sloppy Joe Recipe:
- 10" Skillet- I have had this pan since 2006. It is my go-to large skillet. It heats evenly and quickly. The stainless steel cleans up beautifully with a little baking soda so they still look brand new.
Enjoy!
