I had planned on making the weekly meal deal today. I was going to make “Not So Sloppy Joes.” I thought I could make up Sloppy Joes, tuck them into the crescent roll dough and make like a hot pocket. Sounds good?! Right? It didn’t work out the way I wanted. The Sloppy Joes were too hot and made the crescent roll dough completely unmanageable!
For future reference….DO NOT try to put a hot filling into a crescent roll! After that experiment, I had my brain rolling. We could stuff the crescent rolls with ham and cheese and make little hot sandwiches, or do a little pizza pocket. You could still do the Not So Sloppy Joes, you would just have to cool the filling first. Great for leftovers!
So, here I was in the kitchen with a pan full of sloppy joes. Hmmm…..what could I do. So, I mixed in a drained can of corn. Then I placed it in a casserole dish. Now for the crescent rolls. I already had them out.
I layed them out and rolled them with my rolling pin. I took a ghost cookie cutter and cut out 4 ghosts and placed them on top of the Sloppy Joe mix. I baked for 15 minutes at 375 degrees.
Voila! A perfect Halloween lunch! My kids loved it! You could even top this with cheese! So good!
Don’t worry! I will have a Weekly Meal Deal for you tomorrow! You will have to give me time to rethink what I will make.

I use the Pillsbury Pizza Crust. Roll out and divide into four equal parts. Add your filling and fold over to make a pocket . You have to be careful not to overfill. Seal edges with a fork. My whole family loves these. We’ve done ham & cheese, pepperoni & cheese, chicken with bacon and mozarella. YUMMY!
