Sloppy Joe Wraps

I came across this recipe in my newest issue of Saveur and thought it looked easy enough for a week night. I made mine with ground turkey instead of beef and then placed them into warm spelt tortillas with some shredded mozzarella. The only issue I had with the recipe was the amount of ground cloves. The recipe called for 1/2 teaspoon, which I thought sounded like too much and against my better judgement that is what I put in. Unless you absolutely love the flavor of cloves, I would suggest using only a 1/4 of a teaspoon. Cloves are so strong and half of the amount would be plenty. The recipe I post will have only a 1/4 teaspoon.

Sloppy Joe Wraps

2 Tbsp. butter

1 small yellow onion, finely chopped

1 small green bell pepper, cored, seeded and finely chopped

1 lb. ground turkey

1 cup ketchup

2 Tbsp. mustard

1 Tbsp. white vinegar

1 Tbsp. sugar

1/4 tsp. ground cloves

Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and pepper and cook until softened, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add turkey and cook until browned, 6-8 minutes. Add ketchup, mustard, vinegar, sugar and cloves. Reduce heat to medium low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick and dark, 25-30 minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Makes six servings.
