EASY CLASSIC GOULASH

Steps:

• Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot pot until browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes; drain and discard grease. Stir onion and garlic into beef; cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 10 minutes.
• Stir tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, water, sofrito, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, seasoned salt, and bay leaves into beef mixture. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors blend, about 20 minutes.
• Pour macaroni into beef mixture, cover the pot, and continue simmering until pasta is tender and flavors are completely blended, about 25 minutes. Discard bay leaves.

VINTAGE HAMBURGER GOULASH

Steps:

• Saute beef, 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes and 2 onions in large frying pan. Drain excess fat. Lots of onions makes this good.
• Meanwhile, in another pan cook macaroni in boiling, salted water until tender. Set aside until almost ready to serve.
• When beef and onions are finished cooking, add the canned, crushed tomatores and approximately 1/2 cup water; also add garlic salt, pepper, chili powder and mix well.
• Simmer for about 20 minutes; then add cooked macaroni noodles and mix well when ready to serve. If you add the macaroni noodles too soon, they may over cook and get mushy.

EASY ONE-POT GOULASH

Steps:

• In a soup pot over high heat, brown ground beef with onion 6 to 8 minutes, or until no pink remains in the beef, stirring frequently.
• Stir in remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer 7 to 8 minutes, or until macaroni is tender. Serve immediately.

ONE POT GOULASH

Steps:

• Boil 6 cups salted water (add a little oil to the water so the macaroni won't boil over)Add macaroni (stir to separate) let boil for 6 to 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Return pot to stove heat oil and add green pepper and onion - saute until tender.
• Add hamburger, salt, pepper and chili powder to onions/pepper mixture and cook until no longer pink.
• Add tomatoes and macaroni to meat mixture and stir well. Add tomato juice to not quite cover all. (More or less tomato juice can be added depending on how soupy you like it. The macaroni soaks up alot of the juice.)
• Simmer for 30 minutes stirring occasionally.
