SLOPPY JANES (from http://www.hungrygirl.com/)

Serves: 5
Points: 5

1 lb. raw extra-lean ground beef
5 small hamburger buns (light, if available)
1/2 c. chopped onions
1/2 c. chopped red bell peppers
1 c. canned tomato sauce
3/4 c. canned no-salt-added tomato sauce
2 T. tomato paste
1 T. Splenda No Calorie Sweetener (granulated)
1 T. red wine vinegar
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. dry steak seasoning blend
Dash salt

Spray a large pan with nonstick spray, and bring to medium-high heat. Add beef to the pan. Spread the meat around in the pan to break it up a bit. In a small dish, combine Splenda, salt and steak seasoning. Sprinkle this mixture over the meat, and continue to stir meat in the pan. Once the meat has browned, reduce heat to medium. Add onions, peppers, Worcestershire sauce and vinegar to the pan. Stir, and then continue to cook for 5 minutes. Add tomato sauces and paste to the pan and stir well. Reduce heat to low, and cook the mixture for an additional 5 minutes. Toast the buns, if desired. Put 1/5th of the mixture on each bottom bun, and then finish off with tops of the buns.
