Sloppy Joe Orzo - Christmas Dish

Get a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the orzo pasta until al dente, following the directions on the package. After draining, place the orzo aside.

Olive oil should be heated over medium heat in a big skillet. Just toss in some chopped onions, bell peppers, and garlic. Sauté until softened. Add ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until browned. Pour in tomato sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine. Pour in beef broth and let the mixture simmer for 10-15 minutes until the flavours meld and the sauce thickens.
