Sloppy Joe Sauce:
Add + cook tomato paste and spices (onion, chili, salt, red pepper) until fragrant, 1 min. Turn heat to med-high and add Worcestershire + vinegar to deglaze, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add minced garlic. Cook 30 seconds; add tomato sauce, ketchup, sugar, bouillon, + mustard. Stir, bring to boil, immediately turning down to simmer. Allow thickening over 5-7 mins, stirring occasionally. Stir in turkey, peppers, + onions. Simmer additional 2 mins.
Cheese Sauce:
In a microwaveable bowl, whisk together milk, broth, + cornstarch. Microwave on high for 30-sec increments, stirring in between. It will be ready around 2-3 mins total. When thickened, immediately add freshly shredded cheese, whisking in to melt. Should be a thinner drizzling consistency. Sprinkle in sea salt.
Assemble by layering tortillas on first; sloppy joes, then drizzling cheese sauce over. Throw on a pinch of cilantro, green onions, etc for a garnish. Enjoy!
