How to cook the perfect old-fashioned goulash:
INGREDIENTS:
-1 pound elbow macaroni
-2 pounds ground beef
-1 onion, finely chopped
-3 cloves garlic, minced
-1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
-2 (15 oz) cans tomato sauce
-2 (14.5 oz) cans petit diced tomatoes
-1 1/2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
-2 teaspoons salt
-1/2 teaspoon black pepper
-1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
INSTRUCTIONS:
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-Bring a large pot of water to boil. Cook macaroni for 3 minutes less than the box directions, then drain.
-Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add ground beef and onions to the pan. Break beef apart, cooking for 6-7 minutes until browned. Drain any fat.
-Mix in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
-Add in Worcestershire sauce, tomato sauce, and diced tomatoes. Mix until combined.
-Stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
-Mix in cooked macaroni and cheddar cheese. If your skillet is heat-safe, you can place in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the goulash is bubbly and the cheese is melted. If the skillet is not heat-safe, transfer the goulash to a casserole dish and bake.
Enjoy it!
