Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spread softened butter on one side of each slice of Texas toast. Sprinkle the minced garlic, garlic powder, and parsley evenly over the buttered side.
Place the bread on a baking sheet, buttered side up. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
If you want cheese, sprinkle some shredded mozzarella or cheddar on top during the last 2-3 minutes of baking, then bake until melted and bubbly.
Assemble the Sloppy Joe Texas Toast:
Once your Texas toast is toasted to perfection, spoon a generous amount of the sloppy joe mixture onto the top of each slice.
Optionally, top with a little extra cheese and let it melt for a gooey, cheesy finish.
Serve:
Serve the Texas Toast Sloppy Joes hot, with your favorite sides like potato chips, fries, or a salad.
Tips:
Make it ahead: The sloppy joe mixture can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for 3-4 days, making this a great meal prep option.
Customize: Add pickles, onions, or even jalapeños for extra crunch or heat.
Enjoy your Texas Toast Sloppy Joes—so good, they’ll become a family favorite in no time!
