"Sloppy. Sweet. Spicy. Easy to make weeknight dinner for those days when everything sucks and sometimes you just need a hard hitting, yummy meal to cure all. ombining basic ingredients and making it your own with spices & flavors – me with the Asian Zing from Sriracha and spice. Eat it plain. Eat it with buns, wraps, pitas. Eat it on pizza. Freeze for later use. The possibilities are endless!"
