Perfect timing on your posting of this. I have been looking for a Sloppy Joe recipe that doesn't use powdered package ingriendents and works with turkey. I really like the use of cabbage, carrot and celery in your version. The additon of red wine vinegar adds a nice acidic touch as well. Thanks for sharing. I have added to my try soon folder.
Best Regards,
