I am, by no stretch of the imagination, a chef, nor do I play one in real life! haha But since I now have a family of 5 and I stay home with said family....I have been trying really hard to start cooking some decent meals. Let's just say that a few years ago, we pretty much survived on box meals, frozen meals, and take out. Hamburger Helper was even beyond me.
But I have made a lot of progress in the past couple years. Last night I made goulash and by God...It was really good!!! So....here's what I did....
I started out by bowling some elbow noodles. While they were boiling, I put about a pound of hamburger and a chopped up green pepper in the skillet.
Something about this picture just struck me....when I looked in the pan I just really liked the bright red of the meat and the bright green of the peppers. It looked really pretty.
Then I added a can of stewed tomatoes.
And after that simmered for a bit, I added a jar of spaghetti sauce. This is our new favorite sauce....it is delicious and locally made!
Then add the noodles and let it all simmer together for a few minutes.
Then serve and eat! Yum
Hahaha, cool! My mom used to make this all the time for us when we were little, we loved it! She used 2 cans of tomato soup, I think because it was super cheap? Who knows, any way you slice it, Goulash is awesome!
