Sloppy Joe Stuffed Pumpkins Recipe
A Simple and Delicious Kid Friendly Recipe for Fall
As Fall arrives, I get in the mood for meals my mom
I appreciate how quick, easy and
Little Man always wants to be helping in the kitchen and these Sloppy Joe Stuffed Pumpkins are the perfect kid-friendly recipe for him to help out with.
Around here we love Fall with all the pumpkins, beautiful reds, golds and orange leaves being outside and enjoying the crispness of the air. This time of year it’s imperative that we have a super simple meal that we can whip together for dinner.
Today it is Fall that inspired this twist on a family favorite, these Sloppy Joe Stuffed Pumpkins are so much fun! I used a simple pumpkin muffin tin to make this dinner kid friendly and fun. While I was cooking the meat, I had Little Man use his kitchen safety knife to cut each canned biscuit in half and place the half into the pumpkin muffin cups.
We mixed together the cooked ground beef and Manwich sauce to create the filling. Then Little Man carefully dropped a spoonful inside each biscuit. He folded the biscuits shut and we baked them at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes….or until the biscuits were a nice golden brown.

What a yummy and cute idea! It looks like it could be adjusted for other fillings too. I wonder what else would be good in these?
