We think you'll LOVE these Sloppy Joe's.
This recipe put Henefer on the map and it's a
Henefer Tornament Favorite for sure!

5 lbs. Ground Beef
3 Cans Tomato Rice Soup
2 Cans Tomato Soup
1 Large Onion

Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer.
Fill clean quart jars with completed Sloppy Joe recipe.

Place clean new jar lids onto jars.
Tighten with lid rings.
Place in Pressure Canner with 2-3 inches of water.

When you're ready for dinner . . . just pour the

I love all your posts, of course! It would be handy if you could post the life span on the canning stuff. That way we could write it on the jars as we can them and then there is no guess work.

Your blog is the best! I found you through your My Heart and Home Blog. You are so creative and are making food storage so easy and FUN. I am so excited every morning to get on the computer and check what you have posted and what fun ideas you have. You said that you got the tiles from Walmart for the fish game. Can you tell me what section of Walmart? I walked all over today and didn't find anything. Thanks so much for sharing your talents.

Debbie,
The tiles are in the School Section. You can get them at a School Supply Store too, like Utah Idaho Supply. You can also use the wooden tiles. I got mine from Hobby Lobby, but I've seen them at all of the craft stores. I will be using both types. They both look really cute. (You can paint the wooden tiles to match your project. Way Cute!)
I'm glad to hear you're working on your food storage . . . it just makes me smile.
Keep up the good work!
Trish
