ingredients
1/2 lb macaroni
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 large onion, diced
garlic salt, pepper, chili powder, & hot sauce to taste
2 (14.5 oz) cans whole stewed tomatoes, undrained
2 tablespoons ketchup
Tomato juice as needed
How to make it :
Cook the macaroni to al dente according to package directions. While it’s cooking, brown the ground beef and onion together in an extra-large skillet or in a dutch oven. Drain and season with spices to taste. In a large bowl, mash tomatoes with potato masher and add to beef along with the ketchup. Drain macaroni and add to the beef mixture, stirring well. Taste and add additional seasoning as needed. I didn’t need to add any tomato juice to mine, but if you like yours very juicy you can add as much tomato juice as you like. Phyllis adds it to her leftovers, which I would also recommend, because the noodles tend to soak up all the juice with time.
I add a can or two to mine .
Of Corn.
I would also add chopped green pepper
With the corn, all that does is add a filler which is a carbohydrate. So for diabetics, that canbe too many carb servings.
diced tomatoes instead of stewed
I have to have green peppers in it also I have to have green peppers in it also
Try adding Heinz 57 sauce small bottle and 1 tablespoon sugar taste just like my grandma made
I always add a can of chili beans to mine.
I like a can of corn and green pepper if I have them
Have tried many recipes,THIS IS THE BEST!
Always canned tomatoes never stewed
Corn does not go in goulash.
Why not?
lol
I use original V8 juice after its been in the fridge
Instead of tomato juice, I add V8 juice because V8 juice has flavor. Been doing it for several years!! It really makes a difference!!!
I forgot, I also use stewed tomatoes because they also have more flavor than just plain tomatoes.
My kids call it prison food..they say that’s what the feed you…lol..but we love it
My mom used tomato soup instead of tomato juice and most definitely green peppers and in Maine this is called American chop suey.
