This Cheesy Sloppy Joe Toast recipe takes the beloved flavors of classic sloppy joes and transforms them into an irresistibly cheesy, open-faced snack or quick dinner. Each slice of thick-cut bread serves as the perfect base for savory, saucy beef topped with a gooey layer of melted cheese. It’s bold, comforting, and incredibly easy to make.
Instead of the traditional sandwich format, these toasts bring a more satisfying crunch, and they’re ideal for entertaining or feeding a family on busy nights. The sloppy joe filling is rich with tomato, Worcestershire, and mustard flavors, cooked down into a perfectly thick mixture that won’t make your bread soggy.
The recipe uses mozzarella or provolone cheese for that stretchy, melty finish, but it’s easy to customize with your favorite cheese. You can broil the toasts briefly at the end for that golden brown crust that takes it over the top. Serve them fresh out of the oven with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
