– 1 cup ketchup
– 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
– 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions
Creating Garlic Toast Sloppy Joes is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:
1. Brown the Meat: In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef or turkey and onion. Cook until the meat is browned and the onion is tender, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3. Combine Ingredients: Pour in the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and smoked paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
4. Prepare the Garlic Toast: While the meat mixture is simmering, prepare your garlic toast. If using store-bought, follow package instructions for warming. If homemade, toast slices of bread topped with garlic butter in the oven until golden.
5. Add Cheese: Once the meat mixture has thickened to your liking, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Allow the cheese to melt for another 2-3 minutes.
6. Assemble: Place a generous scoop of the Sloppy Joe mixture on each slice of garlic toast.
7. Garnish: If desired, garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Garlic Toast Sloppy Joes while still warm, paired with your favorite sides.
