Plant-based recipe for Sloppy Joes

One of my daughter's all time favorite meals is sloppy joes.  Until now we always bought the McCormick Sloppy Joes Seasoning Mix and screened out the onions, followed the directions substituting soy or lentils for the hamburger.  I always wanted to have my own recipe of how to make it from scratch (okay, nearly from scratch) and finally, Ta-Da! Here it is!
We should change the name to Sloppy Becky-Joes (this is how I know if she has read my blog or not).

Sloppy Joe filling, without meat

Recipe:

2 cups water or vegetable or mushroom broth

1 can small beans such as Aduki or lentils, drained and rinsed
1 14 ounce can petite diced tomatoes
1 6 ounce can tomato paste
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons Annie's Vegan Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon molasses
1 teaspoon date sugar
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Simmer in large pot with lid on low for 20 minutes to two hours, depending on your schedule and your patience, or how hungry you get as the aroma wafts under your nose.
Serve on toasted whole grain buns.
