Manwich has been a big part of my life since I was the little kid. My mom used to make it as a treat for us when we wanted a quick meal on those cold days in between messing with the horses. It is a form of food that I would look forward to getting as a kid. Now that I’m a busy parent too, I have passed that family favorite onto my children. I tend always to get creative with the ways in which I eat Manwich.
I am not a fancy cook by any means. I am too afraid of messing up a meal entirely. Somehow though I always manage to want to play with Manwich in different recipes. I have added all kinds of toppings onto a Manwich sandwich to make feel like I’m eating a sloppy burger with all the toppings. I have used it in chili. Manwich offers a lot of other wonderfully useful suggestions on their website dedicated to recipes using Manwich. My all time favorite way, to eat them though, is with my Manwich Sloppy French Fries.
- Manwich
- Hamburger
- French Fries
- Shredded Cheese
- Chives
- Optional: Sour Cream & Salsa
- Cook the hamburger and add Manwich while your french fries are cooking in the oven.

- Take the french fries out of the oven and cover them with your Manwich mix and then add as much-shredded cheese on it as you would like.

- Then you add your chives. Optional (but I find it’s better): sour cream and salsa

As you can see, this is an easy meal/side dish to make. My kids LOVE it, and they are quick to stop whatever they are doing to get to the dinner table. It is less messy way to eat Manwich. Although, I’ll be honest, I do love the fact that eating sloppy joes the correct way does make life interesting at the table and creates loads of laughter.
Create Family Memories
If you have kids who tend to use technology at the table, sloppy joes are one meal that you have to use both hands to eat it. It is great for building bonding type conversations. Manwich Sloppy Joes is the kind of meal where playing the [easyazon_link asin=”B00LFVVZCA” locale=”US” new_window=”default” nofollow=”default” tag=”tidbitofexp-20″]Dinner Games: serving up conversation and family fun[/easyazon_link] would more readily accepted because your family is already in good spirits.
