Instructions
- Melt coconut oil in a large skillet and add onion. Cook over medium heat until softened and beginning to brown. Add crumbles and stir until well combined.
- Add remaining ingredients and cook until thickened, approximately 15 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste.
- To assemble, spread buns with more coconut oil and toast in 350°F oven until warmed through but not crisp. Pile sloppy joe mixture over bottom bun, top with onion, coleslaw and top bun. Serve your Plant-based Sloppy Joes immediately. Refrigerate leftovers (they’re delicious the next day).
