To complement the richness of Texas Toast Sloppy Joes, consider serving them with tangy coleslaw, a simple garden salad, or crispy sweet potato fries.

If you’re looking to keep the Texas theme going strong, serve with a side of corn on the cob slathered in butter and sprinkled with a touch of chili powder.
