If there is one thing I’ve learned in the years, if you make anything buffalo flavored, they will come and EAT IT ALL.
That is my family at least. We are obsessed with the spicy deliciousness. It’s only natural we take a sloppy joe spin on it and use hot sauce instead! Hello Low Carb Buffalo Sloppy Joes.
BONUS: WE’VE GOT HIDDEN VEGGIES IN OUR BUFFALO SLOPPY JOE SAUCE
- Celery – Because what hot and spicy combo DOESN’T need celery
- Carrots – Now I know this is a controversial ingredient in the low-carb/keto community but it’s there. While we don’t eat our weight in carrots everyday. Our family personally finds nothing wrong with adding it to our diets in moderation. There are some great vitamins that you can find in carrots. You are more than welcome to omit if it doesn’t fit your lifestyle.
- Onion – We’ve also got some of that. It issss a vegetable. 😉
