American Goulash

Hello friends, I would like to share a recipe with you today that I found on Pinterest and like I often do, I like changing it to fit our tastes and especially if I don't have all the ingredients the original recipe calls for I will find something to substitute if it isn't something too exotic!

Mmm look at those big chunks of tomatoes! I never knew how much flavor those add to a dish until this summer and now I am thinking I will definitely have to 'can' some jars of just plain tomato chunks next summer once the garden is in full swing again!

On to the recipe:

American Goulash

Adapted from: Gonna Want Seconds

1 lb ground beef

1 small onion (chopped)

1 t garlic salt
1 1/2 c water
2 c pizza sauce
1 (15 oz) diced tomatoes
1 1/2 T soy sauce
1 T dried oregano
1 1/2 t seasoned salt
1/4 t pepper
1 1/2 c elbow macaroni (uncooked)

Directions:

Fry the meat, onions and garlic salt in a large skillet until the meat is fully cooked.

Stir in the water, pizza sauce, diced tomatoes, soy sauce, oregano, salt and pepper.

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.

Add the pasta and turn to low heat and simmer until the pasta is tender. About 25 minutes.

Delicious!
