Sloppy Joes

1 package ground turkey or beed
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 lb lean ground beef or turkey
1 6-oz can tomato paste
1 tsp chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
¼ tsp pepper
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp salt
4 whole wheat hamburger buns, toasted
Cheddar cheese and sour cream, optional

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the beef and cook until cooked through. Discard any fat. Stir in the tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, black pepper, cinnamon, and salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 12 minutes. Serve on toasted buns and top with cheese or sour cream, if desired.
