On my endless quest to find ways to use up our abundance of zucchini, I came up with this one today. I add 5-6 cups of yellow crookneck squash. But you can also use yellow summer squash or zucchini. Stokely's was the brand of sloppy joe sauce that I used.

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb ground beef or ground turkey
1 large zucchini or summer squash or crookneck yellow squash, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can sloppy joe sandwich sauce
salt and pepper, to taste
8 hamburger buns

Directions

1
In a big non-stick skillet, add ground beef. onion and garlic and brown.
2
Cook over medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes or until the beef is browned and the zucchini is tender.
3
Change heat to medium-low; add in the sloppy joe sauce; stir and cook 4-5 minutes or until heated.
4
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
Spoon mixture over buns and serve immediately.
