YOUR FAVORITE American Goulash
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
2 cups elbow macaroni, uncooked
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
2 cups beef broth
1 tbsp paprika
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions:
Brown the Meat: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until no longer pink. Drain any excess grease.
Sauté Vegetables: Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet, cooking until they are soft. Add the bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add Tomatoes & Seasonings: Stir in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, beef broth, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Cook the Pasta: Add the uncooked elbow macaroni to the skillet, ensuring it’s submerged. Cover and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Serve: Once the pasta is cooked and the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve this hearty goulash with a side of crusty bread for a comforting meal that’s sure to satisfy
