Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat add the ground beef, onion, and bell peppers. Cook until the beef is browned and crumbled. Drain the grease.
To the beef in the pan add the garlic, ketchup, chili powder, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and water.
Stir to combine and cook over medium to medium-high heat until the sloppy joe mix thickens.
Meanwhile on a sheet pan, place you Texas toast in a single layer. Bake for about 3-4 minutes just until the bread thaws and is soft. Remove the bread from the oven.
Using a spoon make a large indent in each piece of bread. Spoon the sloppy joe mix into the indent on each slice of Texas toast.
Slice the Colby jack cheese in half diagonally. Place one slice of cheese on top of each sloppy joe.
Bake for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted.
