Preheat your oven according to the directions on the package of Texas Toast that you are using. I used New York Garlic Texas Toast and preheated by oven to 425F. Place the toast in a casserole dish or on a baking sheet. Cook your toast according to the package directions and set it aside. I like to stand my toast up and lean it against the side of my dish so that it doesn't get soggy. Reduce the oven temp to 400F and keep it on for now.
Melt butter on medium heat in your skillet. Add the minced garlic and diced onion and green bell pepper. Cook for about 4 minutes until the veggies and garlic are softened. Remove this to a plate and set it aside for now.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, and cook it on medium heat until it has browned, around 5 minutes. Drain the excess fat from the skillet once the meat has browned.
Now add the Manwich sauce, tomato sauce, garlic, onion, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Stir and also mix in the 1 ts of Worcestershire sauce at this time.
Reduce the heat and simmer the sloppy joe meat mixture for 10 minutes.
Lay the Texas Toast pieces down, and then top each slice of Texas Toast with about ⅓ cup to ½ cup of sloppy joe mixture. Then add your cheese of choice. If using American cheese then one slice on each piece works great. If using shredded cheddar cheese I recommend around 1.5 tablespoon per slice.
Bake at 400F until the cheese melts. It should only take about 1-2 minutes.
Optional add on's are some sliced green onions and sprinkles of cayenne pepper to take these to the next level! Enjoy!
