Manwich Dinner Ideas: Sandwich and Manwich Chili Fries #sponsored #Manwich

August 28, 2013 by Dawn McAlexander

Manwich Recipe Ideas ~
Chili Fries Recipe | Cheap Is The New Classy
My husband is in love with Manwich. It just has a hearty sauce with a sweet and tangy taste that makes a great meal with very little work. Being the big kid of the house, my husband especially loves meals that he can make a mess with. If it has meat and tastes good, he is in heaven, and Manwich definitely fits his idea of a filling and yummy meal. With less time to prepare a tasty meal that everyone can enjoy, there is so much time for family.
Manwich sent us 3 flavors to try – Original, Bold and Thick and Chunky. That made it easy for us to make several tasty meals. We used the Bold and the Thick and Chunky for traditional Manwich sandwich style meals but we used the Original to make Manwich Chili Fries.

How To Make Manwich Chili Fries

You will need…
  • At least one can of Manwich {whichever flavor you like, we used original}
  • ground beef {amount dependant upon how much Manwich you use}
  • Potatoes {however many you and your family plan on eating
  • Cheese {optional}

To prepare the Manwich Chili Fries…
Chili Fries Recipe - Cheap Is The New Classy
First, you need to slice the potatoes lengthwise into sections. They should look similar to french fries. Then you need to cook them in the deep fryer or oven until they are completely done.

While the potatoes are cooking, brown your ground beef making sure you get it completely cooked.

Throw that yumminess onto your fries and chow down, my friend! This is a great snack for a football game and my husband likes to chow down on this a lot during football season.

    I tried Manwich once years ago and wasn’t impressed. I love sloppy joes. I make them with fresh tomato, onion, peppers and celery. My taste has changed over the years so I might like it now. Who knows.

      I like some of their newer flavors best, personally. So, I would definitely try it again, if I were you. 🙂

    I loved Sloppy Joes as a kid – I didn’t even know they still made Manwich. My daughter loves eating hamburgers and potatoes – so this might be the time to introduce her to it!

    I can imagine having these on a cool fall day. Manwich is great any time of the year though. Thanks for the great recipe.

    Yummy! There is just something comforting and filling about Manwich. We like to just use the original for sandwiches, but it really is very versatile. We often will eat it open face with melted cheese. It’s easy and very enjoyable.

    Manwich is on of those foods that are easy, versatile, and great all year long. From sandwiches to casseroles to even manwich chili. Most people can find some way to enjoy it.

    I like the idea of serving the Manwich mixture on fries instead of a roll. Thanks!

    We always eat our Manwich (sloppy joes) open-face. Just dip in the fries like it’s ketchup. 🙂
