Microwave Sloppy Joes

©1999 "So Easy, So Delicious"

3/4 lb ground beef, turkey or chicken
3/4 C onion, diced
8 oz can tomato sauce
1 T sweet pickle relish
1 tsp brown sugar
1 T cider vinegar
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp prepared mustard
2 hamburger buns, split in half
2 slices Cheddar or American cheese, cut into 4 strips each

In a microwaveable plastic colander, combine beef, turkey or chicken and onion. Set colander in a microwaveable bowl. Microwave on high for 4 to 5 minutes, or until meat is no longer pink, stirring several times during cooking. Drain off any fat that may have accumulated. In a 1½-quart microwave bowl, combine meat mixture, tomato sauce, pickle relish, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Microwave on high for 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through. Spoon meat mixture evenly over 4 roll halves. Crisscross 2 cheese strips on each.

Hint: Instead of rolls this may be served over pasta or rice.
