  3. While the mixture simmers, preheat your oven to the broil setting.
  4. On a baking sheet, lay out your 4 slices of garlic bread and spoon the sloppy joe mixture generously over each slice.

Notes

Leftover Garlic Bread Sloppy Joes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. For freezing, store just the sloppy joe mixture in a freezer-safe container for up to three months. Best to prepare garlic bread fresh for optimal texture.
