Slop, Sloppy Joes

From Adam Sandler's Lunch Lady song: Yesterday's meatloaf is today's sloppy joes, slop, sloppy joes......!
If you doubled the meatloaf recipe from yesterday, you should have plenty for sloppy joes. A couple extra ingredients, about 10 minutes, and dinner's done! I like to serve them with oven fries, sweet potato fries, or potato salad.

Meatloaf Sloppy Joes
Leftover meatloaf (or about 4-1 1/2" slices for 4 sandwiches, or 1 lb browned and crumbled ground beef)
1 Tbsp. olive oil
Green bell pepper, diced
1/4 c. ketchup
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. barbeque sauce
1 Tbsp yellow prepared mustard
Palmful (or about 2 Tbsp) Montreal steak seasoning
Hamburger buns
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese (pepper jack is good too)

Heat oil in large non-stick skillet, add bell pepper and cook for just a couple minutes. Add meatloaf, and crumble it a little with a spatula. Combine ketchup, brown sugar, bbq sauce, and mustard in small bowl, then stir into meat mixture. Sprinkle with steak seasoning, and let simmer for about 5 minutes. Place a heaping spoonful on each bun bottom, then top with a slice of  cheese and bun top.
