Chipotle Sloppy Joes with Crunchy Coleslaw

I found this recipe in a Woman's World magazine and decided to give it a try.

Hubby is opposed to corn in almost anything, so we had a "pizza is on speed dial" compromise.

We all ate, and decided we liked it!

Changes I would make:
1. None of us were crazy about having the slaw on the sandwich. When I make it again, I will leave it off.
2. The slaw itself didn't have much flavor. I would boost the vinegar, salt, and pepper.

Ingredients:
COLESLAW
¼ Cup plain non fat yogurt
1 Tbsp mayonnaise
2 Tsp cider vinegar
½ Tsp hot sauce
⅛ Tsp salt
⅛ Tsp pepper
1 ½ Cup prepared coleslaw mix
½ Red pepper, diced

SLOPPY JOES
1 Lb ground beef
¼ Cup chopped onion
¾ Cup ketchup
½ Cup frozen corn
½ Cup canned black beans (rinsed and drained)
½ Cup tomato sauce
1-2 Tsp minced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
½ Tsp cumin
¼ Cup chopped cilantro
¼ Tsp salt
¼ Tsp pepper
Hamburger buns


Directions:
COLESLAW:
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in bowl
2. Add coleslaw mix and red pepper, toss to coat
3. Cover, refrigerate until ready to serve

SLOPPY JOES
1. Heat large non stick skillet over medium heat until hot.

5. Reduce heat, simmer 5 minutes, stirring often
