Old Fashioned Goulash

Have you ever tried American Goulash? It’s personally one of my absolute favorite meals to prepare!

I must confess, that I have a deep affection for pasta in all its glorious shapes and forms, and this recipe is destined to become a beloved classic in your household as well!

The flavor is truly remarkable, and no pun intended! Not only is it incredibly delicious, but it’s also a breeze to whip up. Pair it with cornbread or biscuits, and you’re in for a real treat!

And guess what? It gets even better—it’s straightforward to make! You won’t have to spend excessive time in the kitchen to create this delightful meal for your family. Enjoy it as it is or sprinkle some cheese on top, just like I do with my bowl! If your family adores cheese as much as mine does, serving the old-fashioned goulash with shredded Parmesan will take it to the next level.

This dish is perfect for dinner, and it’s also an excellent option when you’re feeding a crowd. It’s an ultra-simple one-pot, stovetop dinner featuring seasoned meat, tomatoes, and noodles. It never fails to hit the spot and leaves everyone satisfied.
