Lucky for you all, I have delightful friends who are willing to share their recipes with us! I am in somewhat of a cooking slump (think... exclusively frozen TJoes food) so they are bailing me out on Recipe Monday! Today, my cousin-ish Amy has agreed to do another guest post for me- she is filled with fun ideas! I do love the Deceptively Delicious book and I am pumped Amy reminded me to go blow the dust off of my copy and use it! So Happy Monday and Enjoy!
Enjoy!

Directions

2. Add the meat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until no longer pink, 4 - 5 minutes.
3. Add the vegetable purees, raw chopped carrots (if using), beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the liquid is reduced by about one-half, 15 - 20 minutes.
4. Spoon the mixture over buns and serve.
