The combination of the casserole, potatoes, and carrots creates the perfect comfort meal!
Popular Substitutions & Additions
One of the best things about this casserole is how easy it is to customize! You can switch out the ground beef for ground turkey or even ground chicken. You can also add any of your favorite toppings, like diced tomatoes or shredded lettuce. Feel free to substitute your favorite shredded cheese in place of the shredded cheddar cheese.

Leftover sloppy joe casserole is delicious! Keep your leftover casserole in a sealed container in the fridge. It will last for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave in 30 second increments until warm. For larger portions, reheat in the oven at 350 degrees until warm.
