LAUSD School Cafeteria Sloppy Joes

Subject: Sloppy Joes

Hi,

I went to school at Ranchito Elementary school in the LAUSD in the 1970’s. 
They served the most delicious sloppy joes. I have tried many sloppy joe 
recipes over the years to see if any of them came close and none have. 
Do you know if that recipe is out there somewhere? I would love to make 
it for my kids and grandkids. 

Thank you,

Marie

Hi Marie,

Sorry, I had no success locating any sloppy joe recipe that mentioned LAUSD, Los Angeles schools, or Ranchito Elementary School. There is a school cafeteria sloppy joe recipe on my site, but it does not say what school it is from:

Hi,
 
I'm trying to find the recipe for Horn and Hardart's french dressing.  
I used to love their hearts of lettuce with french dressing.
 
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
