As some of you know I have been attempting to record my mother's recipes for all eternity. This has been one of my all time comfort meals all my life. Some of the ingredients would change depending on how much $$ we had at the time. Feel free to add any seasoning you might like.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Prepare elbow macaroni according to directions on package till al dente.
  2. 2
    Save a little of the pasta water in case you need it later to loosen the sauce.
  3. 3
    Brown meat in a large skillet, drain the fat and add the onion and bell pepper half way through cooking.
  4. 4
    Drain any ramaining fat when onion and pepper is done and add garlic, stir it about.
  5. 5
    Add the meat mixture to the cooked macaroni, add the canned tomatoes, corn and sauce.
  6. 6
    Mix all this together and add seasoning to taste.
  7. 7
    You may need to add some of the pasta water to loosen the sauce if it is too dry.
  8. 8
    This is really good the next day too.

I'm so glad I found this recipe! You'd think after 36 years of marriage, I would no longer need a recipe for goulash, but I did. My mom made it all the time but never used a recipe. By leaving out the corn, this is very close to hers. Delicious!

    This was good...followed the recipe as written except used fusilli and no green pepper (didn't have one). I added some basil and next time will probably enhance it with more spices.

    This is a great comfort food recipe. My whole family loves it and it's soooo easy. It is a regular on our dinner table ever since you first shared it with me.

    Absolutely loved it Emaw! I had leftovers for 2 days, as it makes a bunch, and that was allright with me because I ate it for brekky, lunch and dinner.I used my canned tomatoes, and my canned tomatoe sauce and it was super good for such simple ingredients. Topped it with some grated cheddar after it was cooked, served it with your cornbread and some fried okra from our garden and was a wonderful meal. Thanks Emaw/Riff
