Recipe: Goulash

by Molly Jo Realy @MollyJoRealy

This is an old family recipe. I don’t remember not eating this as a kid. The great part is, my daughter loves it now, too. The first time I made it, she went back for seconds… and thirds. Now that’s saying something!

INGREDIENTS:

1 to 1.25 lb. ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
8 to 12 oz. macaroni or pasta shells, cooked
1 can tomato soup
1 can vegetable soup

On stove top, cook the pasta. Separately, brown the ground beef and onion. Add both soups to meat, mix in cooked pasta. Can thin with read the rest. . .

My daughter loves stroganoff, but I have to admit, I’ve never made it before. I usually feed her the complete-in-a-box or frozen options. But in keeping with my new goal of cooking more and spending less, I looked in my already-stocked pantry and found I had everything I need for one of her favorite meals.

This dish … read the rest. . .
