Ingredients
* 2 tbsp. (30 mL) vegetable oil
* 1 lb. (500 g) ground turkey
* 1 medium green pepper, chopped
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 cup (250 mL) beer (or chicken broth)
* 1/2 cup (125 mL) Heinz ketchup
* 2 tbsp. (30 mL) Worcestershire sauce
* 1/4 cup (50 mL) sliced pimiento-stuffed green olives
* 4 green onions, chopped
* 1/2 tsp. (2 mL) salt
* 1/4 tsp. (1 mL) black pepper

Cooking Instructions
1. Heat oil in a large saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey, green pepper and garlic and cook, stirring to break up the clumps of meat, until turkey is no longer pink, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in beer (or broth), ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and olives. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly and let simmer, stirring, for 10 to 12 minutes or until about half the liquid has evaporated and the mixture is thickened. Stir in green onions, salt and pepper and remove from heat.
2. Spoon sloppy joe mixture onto toasted buns and add any toppings you like.
