Goulash - They Way I Remember It

Be the first to rate & review!

This is the way my mom made us goulash when we were kids. She never used a lot of seasonings when cooking and she doesn't care for garlic. It's very simple and is made with only 4 ingredients.

  • 1 small onion, diced

  • 2 14.5 oz cans diced tomotoes, undrained

Directions

  1. Bring water to a boil in a large pot, cook pasta according to package directions. There should be about 1/4 of the pasta left in the box.

  3. Add the two cans of diced tomotoes to the ground beef.

Cook’s Note

  • I like to add a diced green pepper and 2 cloves minced garlic in with the ground beef and onion.
