Ingredients

1 pound Ground Beef (96% lean)
1 cup chopped yellow, green or red bell pepper
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 can or bottle (12 ounces) 100% vegetable juice
2 tablespoon lightly-packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split

Preparation

Step 1

Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add Ground Beef, bell pepper and onion; cook 8 to 10 minutes, breaking beef up into 3/4-inch crumbles and stirring occasionally.

Cooking Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed Ground Beef. Ground Beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160ºF. Color is not a reliable indicator of Ground Beef doneness.
Step 2

Stir in vegetable juice, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 7 to 9 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated and thickens slightly, stirring occasionally.
Step 3

Evenly place beef mixture on bottom half of each bun; close sandwiches.
