PICKY MIKE'S GOULASH

Steps:

• In a stew or dutch-oven pot, saute meat and chopped onions until brown.
• Pour off any grease (I use lean turkey, so I don't have extra grease).
• Add to browned meat& onions all of the remaining ingredients (the order doesn't matter).
• Stir and bring to boil, then turn down to medium-low or simmer and put lid on pot.
• Simmer 20 minutes or until noodles (or potatoes) are done.
• Stir occasionally to keep from sticking to bottom of pot.

CLASSIC GOULASH

Steps:

• Cook and stir the ground beef in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, breaking the meat up as it cooks, until the meat is no longer pink and has started to brown, about 10 minutes. Skim off excess fat, and stir in the onions and garlic. Cook and stir the meat mixture until the onions are translucent, about 10 more minutes.
• Stir water, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, soy sauce, Italian seasoning, bay leaves, and seasoned salt into the meat mixture and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir macaroni into the mixture, cover, and simmer over low heat until the pasta is tender, about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, discard bay leaves, and serve.

MIKE'S GOULASH

Steps:

• 1. Brown meats. Add remaining ingredients along with enough water to make desired consistency. You want it rather thick. This is more like a casserole in a pot consistency rather than a sauce.

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.
