1 lb Ground Beef
1/2 c  Onion; Chopped, 1 Md.
1/2 c  Celery; Thinly Sliced
2 c  Cabbage; Shredded
1/3 c  Green Pepper; Chopped
3/4 c  Catsup
1/4 c  Water
1/4 ts Salt
1 tb Mustard; Prepared
8    Hamburger Buns; *

* Hamburger buns should be split and toasted. Cook and stir the meat,
onion and celery in a large skillet until the meat is brown. Drain off the
excess fat. Stir in the cabbage, green pepper, catsup, water, salt, and
mustard and heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and
cover. Simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes. Spoon the
mixture onto the bottom halves of the buns and top with the remaining
halves.

NOTE:

For Sloppy Joes, omit the cabbage and salt.
