Laurel's Sloppy Joes

INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. ground beef or turkey
1 large onion, diced
1 c. grated carrots
1 c. grated zucchini
1 c. shredded cabbage
1 can black beans, rinsed
1/2 cup water
1 8-oz. can tomato sauce
¼ cup BBQ sauce

DIRECTIONS:
1. Saute meat and onion until onion begins to become tender.
2. Add vegetables and beans, cook until meat is cooked through and vegetables are desired tenderness.
3. Add seasoning, water, and sauces, bring to boil. If too thick, add orange juice or more water.

NOTES: I love having this stuff on hand to put on top of salads, toast, baked sweet potatoes, etc. It's a very flexible recipe that usually ends up being a mixture of whatever vegetables and sauces I have on hand, but this is the basic idea.
