Keto Sloppy Joes
These keto sloppy joes have that sweet and tangy flavor that a good sloppy joe is known for. I kept the base recipe very similar to the one I've made for my kids, but swapped in sweetener for brown sugar and used sugar free ketchup in place of regular. The results taste just like the classic, but without all the unneeded sugar.

Notes
We used Heinz No Sugar Added Ketchup. ¾ of a cup has 12g carbs. If you’re using a different ketchup, your nutrition info will vary accordingly.
We use Lakanto Golden Monkfruit Sweetener in this recipe. Any brown sugar replacement that measures 1:1 should work well, but we love Lakanto. Use code THATLOWCARBLIFE for 20% off your order at Lakanto.com.
