Sloppy Joes are dinner time classic for a reason. They are fast, cheap, and delicious. How can you beat that? This recipe is all about making them faster (cooks in under 30 minutes) and healthier (did I mention they are vegan). Do you love your Instant Pot? I need more fun ideas for what to make in mine. We had leftover dried black eyed peas from a recipe I made earlier this year and I wanted to use my Instant Pot so I came up with this yummy sloppy joe idea.

Our vegan Instant Pot Sloppy Joes recipe makes about eight sandwiches. Don’t know eight people? No problem because you can totally freeze the leftovers. It saves and reheats really well a for quick meal at a later date.
