My dad's goulash was ground beef, lots of green peppers and onions, kidney beans, diced tomatoes and a big ole slab of velveeta. He called it The Stuff. After he passed, I recreated it for my mom. It tasted just like his. She cried the whole time eating it. 😍

When our mom was in the hospital, our dad made "goulash." The next night, goulash; we said dad, we had goulash last night; he said it was Polish goulash; the next night, American goulash, then Lithuanian, then Swedish, and so on; we thought our dad was the bomb! Such great memories.

Going through my divorce I was barely keeping it together. I made this one night and my kids LOVED it!!!! They always asked for it every time we were together. It became a household staple. Now 6 years later we’re still loving it!!! Mine is just boiled elbow with a couple cans of store pasta sauce and a pound of ground beef.

[@jenniferlawrence9652]

This is what I do but I also add fried onions

[@bridgetharrison103]

I love how frugal you make your using pasta sauce instead of tomato sauce I'll have to try that on broke budget week.

[@kimshannon4159]

We love goulash. I always use stewed tomatoes and keep a glass of tomato juice beside the pot to keep the juices flowing. I add a pat of butter before serving, usually put cheese on it and have with garlic toast. I've never tried with corn. Looks delish!

[@saltycrow]

I made this last weekend. It ended up a little different than I usually make it though. I forgot to grab a green pepper when I did my shopping, but I did have a box of baby bellas, so I used them instead, chopped up fine. I also add a sweet onion minced fine which I caramelize with the mushrooms in real butter, before the beef goes in, carmelizing the onion adds a extra depth of flavor. I've tried both ways and that extra browning on the onion does make a difference. I also use a small can of tomato paste and beef better than bullion. The paste & bullion both get stirred into the beef and veg and cooked till the flavors meld together. I also use a can of diced tomatoes and a can of plain tomato sauce and about 4 cups or so of water to cook the macaroni. Last ingredient was a little block of Kerrygold sharp cheddar stirred in. A little garlic salt and a lot of fresh ground black pepper. I'm a family of one so I give away most of what I cook. My son-in-law texted me after he ate his and said "it was ballin beefaroni", 🤣 kids. I took some for my nurse at my hemodialysis unit and she liked it well enough to be sneaking back to their lunch room all morning and eat bites of it cold😮. My sister, who never tried mushrooms, claims she hates them said, "it had a really good flavor". Lol. All I said was "thank-you". No way will I ever tell her she ate mushrooms🤣. Unless of course she outright asks if I added them. Then I'd have to tell her the truth. One thing I learned early on when raising kids is if you mince fine or even puree the veg they claim they hate... they'll eat anything. If they can't see it, they'll eat it without complaint. Outta sight, outta mind. And they get their vegtables.

[@lalakeneni]

I'm ok with mushroom flavor but sometimes, the texture weirds me out. I can understand why she'd be ok with them minced. I know they are good for you so I may try doing this the next time I make my American Goulash. I wish I could do this as a way to learn to like cheese but I just can't seem to get past the smell.😞

[@lisaemmerich138]

Oh my gosh, I am so glad I found this!! My husband loves this dish. My mom use to make it for him about once a month, but I never learned how to make it, and I lost my mom a couple of years ago. This looks exactly like the kind she made. I'm going to make it for my husband this week. He'll be so surprised. Thank you so much for posting this recipe!!

Love your channel. I use Worcestershire sauce in cooking a LOT. My Dad was from Peterborough, England. The British pronunciation is wooster shear. I always cook my pasta separately. My French chef Mom said the starch from the pasta alters the taste of the dish you are making. Also: if you have leftovers? The pasta will get like glue. Just separate the pasta in another bowl and refrigerate it after it cools. When your ready for leftovers? Heat up the mixture then add the macaroni. Lot less starchy and the pasta doesn’t get mushy from being overcooked. My mom? DARN her! Was RIGHT! Miss you Mom and Dad…xxoo

[@janiceandrews8972]

Your note was posted a long time ago, but I'm going to use this recipe again, and read through it just to be sure I have all the ingredients in mind. Then I read comments. I do the same, cooking the macaroni separately, for the same reasons. I can make double the recipe of the sauce and meat, and freeze half, then I don't have weird macaroni in the frozen portion. I cook fresh noodles when I'm serving the second half, later on. I agree... it's much better, for me, that way. Just thought I'd tell you.. you never know when your words will be read. :)

I remember my grandmother making this but she didn't use nearly as many ingredients. If I recall correctly, she told me it was a dish made in many households during the great depression because it was fairly cheap to make. And being from the country, the onions, peppers, tomatoes (fresh or home canned) usually came from the family garden making the cost even lower.

[@kathybutler2349]

What a beautiful picture of how much simpler life used to be...even in a very trying experience like the Great Depression.

And that may be why I love it so much…my father had vivid recollections of that horrible time.

[@sharoncollins-chiasson9803]

You are right on, my dear! Both of my grandmothers made goulash using kitchen gardens right out their back doors. Kitchen gardens are a smaller version of a person’s big garden accessible right out the back door…lol! Tomato’s, green peppers, cabbage, onions, potatoes, etc. My mother’s mom put me outside on morning with a salt shaker and I ate ripe tomatoes right off the vine! There was a pump handle well right at the beginning of the rows of vegetables in the garden. All I had to do was grab the handle and pump to get water to wash my ripe, juicy tomato off before biting into it! By the time I went back in the house I had juice running down my face, my shirt and my legs with tomato juice! Mmmm, they those tomatoes were good! My mom’s goulash must have had more tomatoes or maybe use tomato paste than this recipe because the juice was thicker and redder than this one??? Any one way, both were DELICIOUS and served with hot, homemade bread….yes!

[@beckyshock3099]

Yes my Mom used to make this because we liked it! I still make it today, and my family love it. We never added peppers, or cheese. Just onion, beef, macaroni and tomato juice, it's plain but filling, and eaten with cornbread, YUMMY!!!

(5 ingre.) Prepare: Brown meat & onion in skillet (med. high heat). Drain, season with Salt & Pepper. Add spag. sauce and 1 c. water, bring to boil. Stir in macaroni.

Love goulash. I have always made my grandma's/mom's but yrs ago I changed it up and I now add Frido-Lays jalapeno cheese dip. Gives it a little kick with a little sweetness with the brown sugar. Hamburger, chopped onions, elbow macaroni, peeled whole tomatoes (cut up) tomato sauce, salt, pepper and brown sugar. Last 15 minutes, I add the jalapeno cheese. Homemade bread/rolls. Yummy.

[@Keyboardje]

I'm from the Netherlands, and I've never before heard a dish like this called "goulash". We would just call it "macaroni". Goulash to us (in Europe) is NOT with macaroni, but it's a beef dish that has to simmer for hours, and you eat it with rice, potatoes or bread etc. This looks and sounds yummy though! :) Edit: Guess what I'm eating tonight? :D

Its a personal choice what people like to eat. Its NEVER wrong, its your taste. I just don't like when people say it's original and its not. Fusion cooking has been around for a long time and its great. My American goulash is a bit different. I use: Red bell pepper Onion Ground beef Garlic Oregano Beef stock Diced tomatoes Some tomato paste from a tube. 1 tsp of sugar. If I have canned tomatoes from my garden I omit the sugar Red pepper flakes (opt.) Soy sauce. That shocked me but its magic. Of course pasta. Cheese is added at the dining table and it your choice. Salad and Texas toast on the side. Your looks very good but different. I love how many was there are to create the same dish. Take care💜X

I am from Florida and I call that Beefaroni. The goulash we make is stewed beef with onions and bacon with lots of delicious beef gravy that has a hint of smok from the bacon a hint of mustard and dill and it’s served over diced boiled potatoes. It is very similar to Rouladen.

[@gldenno6169]

Hello Catherine! It was fun to watch your goulash video. I have loved this easy dish for decades…had it at home when I was a kid and made it often after I got married, but it had fewer ingredients. We browned a pound of hamburger, a medium onion chopped and browned together, a little green pepper if we had it, a can of tomato soup, and small can of tomato sauce, and a cup or 2 of cooked elbow macaroni, seasonings and let it simmer a bit. Sooo good! So I’m now in my mid seventies and going to make it your way tonight…it’s cooking now but I’m a little hesitant to add broth and the macaroni. I might have to cook it separately.

Goulash is my FAVORITE!!! I've never tried bell pepper before even though its one of my absolute favorite foods! I love them by themselves. I make 2 different types of goulash. And recently have discovered that a bit of chili seasoning, paprika and Adobe seasoning added so much flavor! After browning the ground sirloin I sauté at least 5 onions and as the whole soup is cooking I use the same elbow pasta. The tomato, I use diced and puree. BEST goulash EVER!!! If it were just for me I would use 10 onions! 😆 🤣 When I reheat a bowl the next day I put 1-2 slices of mozzarella on top. The pepper and salt are so important. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

[@lisabray2209]

This recipe is the exact one my mama use to make when we were kids. I make it today and still love it.

[@user-nm8pd6ky1s]

Bell peppers, with onion and tomatoes just has such a delicioius base for so many recipes. I've been using a splash of soy sauce in many of my recipes that call for ground beef and tomatoes, peppers. Sounds odd, but gives such an enhanced flavor without tasting "chinese", if you add just a splash.

[@BS1af]

thank you for this!!! i've never had a great, easy goulash! a childhood fav

[@sarahcosta4882]

I made this tonight for dinner with home made biscuits! Yummy!

[@Thomas-ky3rl]

They made one similar to this when I was in the 6th grade. I was a really skinny kid and would hardly eat much of anything I was picky But when my school cafeteria made this I couldn't get enough. Now I'm a picky old man lol perhaps I will try your Recipe. Thank you for the recipe.

[@kristamorehead-mcnutt1714]

My l Mom always called it Johnny Marzetti. It was ground beef, elbow noodles, peas, and diced tomatoes, and tomatoe sauce. I add garlic, and use Mac and cheese instead of plain noodles.

[@omidee2926]

Mom always put ranch style beans in the ghoulash. My favorite childhood meal.

[@dawnb5617]

I didn’t have any kind of goulash until I was an adult. My Italian mom would just make spaghetti. I love both. ❤️

[@axerxes3981]

Kidney beans, a 15 oz. can drained!! Perfection!!

[@kw5839]

I’m one of the few people that isn’t really a big fan of pasta dishes but I have to say this looks good.

[@CatherinesPlates]

Thank you for watching, and it is sooo good.

[@sesteadman]

I’m going to make this and try freeze drying it! What a fantastic comfort food that you can fix quickly in any portion size you chose. Just add boiling water.

[@missmothertrucker]

Looks awesome similar to what we had when I was a kid and that I used to cook for my kids

[@bumblebee623]

Your food, while none of it is authentic anything other than straight American home cooking, is all delicious and heart warming. American comfort food all moms make. For a generation who doesn't cook and lives off fast food. This is a time capsule to be cherished for those who do end up cooking. While not healthier, it's more delicious than any Gordon Ramsay recipe

[@CatherinesPlates]

Well, that's what I cook American home cooking. Thanks for watching.

[@jmarcos1008]

Brings me memories of my Mom making this just as you do. It looks very delicious and comforting. Thank you.

[@70CobraJet429]

My goulash starts exactly the same as yours. Sauté the green pepper and onion with some salt and pepper, and then add in the ground beef. Meanwhile, I have the elbow macaroni (one small box) started in another pan. Once the ground beef and macaroni are cooked, I combine them and two cans of tomato bisque soup in a large bowl. Done!

[@nancywhitehead6397]

I am 84 in October and this is one of my American favorites to this day. I do not use Corn or the Cheese but i do add some Thyme I find it gives anything with Vegetables more flavor. I think i will try the Cheese it looks good just never thought to use it or give it a try Thank Catherine once again for featuring our American Classic foods we all love so much.. Love you and your family and it goes without saying all your recipes lol

[@CatherinesPlates]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like my recipes.

[@annisechetelat9026]

Got this for lunch in elementary school. Smelled so good with their rolls! I'm gonna make this tomorrow!

[@matthewc6858]

We use nearly the same ingredients, but we added Pinto beans from a can and about 1.5 Tablespoons Chili Powder. One thing we do different is we add Parmasean on top when we serve it. I like the parmasean better. This dish is better the next day!

[@CatherinesPlates]

Yes, this dish is better the next day.

[@deniseferguson228]

My version of goulash is yours now. Thanks for sharing. My grandkids are going to love this. Have a great day.

[@CatherinesPlates]

Thank you! You too!

[@yokweification]

I pretty much cook most of your recipes and my children LOVE them that they eat them fast like animal :-) Thank you!!!!

[@CatherinesPlates]

You are so welcome!

[@celiagorleski2716]

Haven't had it since Grade School in the 1960s. I know it was really good.

[@lillyhawkins1304]

Catherine, I just love watching you cook and I love seeing your husband and Children help you cook. your show makes my day I tell everyone about you

[@CatherinesPlates]

Thank you so much!

[@sharoncrawford3042]

My husband loves the one pot taco spagetti. I really like it too.

[@dianed2448]

This looks good and easy to make. Thank you, Catherine!

[@CatherinesPlates]

It really is!

[@dominickefrim3088]

The only real difference with my goulash is i don't use the Worcestershire and i use a little sugar to cut through the tanginess of the tomatoes. I also use fresh garlic at the start and only a little garlic powder on the back end if the sauce needs more garlic. When serving i usually use fresh grated cheese and parsley flakes as well to add a layer of color and flavor to the plate for presentation. I don't fully stir the cheese in while cooking but fold it in and leave some of the cheese to melt before serving. Goes great paired with 1/4rd garlic bread or Parmesan toasted texas toast type bread. It sounds complicated but it's actually very simple and easy to execute perfectly everytime i make it.

[@SuperCHERISHED]

Thank you for the wonderful demonstration and printed recipe. I am very excited to make this dish!

[@bumblebeethoughts9753]

Years ago my son said he wanted spaghettiOs with meatballs like the neighbor kid gets. I made American goulash that day and told my son how much better it is. He wouldn’t touch it seeing the peppers and onions. Later on the neighbor boy came over and hovered over the pot saying how delicious goulash is. He said it was his most favorite and wished he didn’t have to eat the canned stuff. As little Bobby was leaving I paid him the 5 dollars I promised him for saying how great the dish was!!! 😂 My son finally tried it and has loved it ever sense.

[@CatherinesPlates]

LOL!

[@zonacrs]

An American classic. American Goulash or Johnny Marzetti, Macaroni and Beef, etc. Hundreds of variations. I use red bell peppers or Fresno peppers and add Paprika and Cumin, no corn but that's just me. Love it any way it's made, "one dish meal" is what my aunt from Ohio called it probably not wanting to explain.

[@user-ld1xv1xx1i]

Goulash oh my it is so good i love this. I can eat this Goulash like 3 times a week can not get enough of it.

[@janjones4772]

When I was a kid, my dad would come in late,he would empty the fridge of any leftovers, he’d put it in the pot which he’d cooked some hamburger in then he’d put some elbow Macaroni. It would be done in no time it was so wonderful, one of my favorite, he’d , I make a big pot now, it would last a few days, I never grow tired of it, my brother’s favorite was the macaroni with tomatoes soup, I liked it too. It was a treat to have. Thanks for sharing, do believe it’s time to make a pot.👍👍♥️😊😊

[@sandman_7326]

It's great , I love it with the tomato soup in it .

[@StephanieJoRountree]

It's been decades since I've made it and probably just followed my mom's recipe, which most likely came from Betty Crocker! I don't recall using corn or cheese.

@@verucasalt2391 then please don’t call it goulash,give a different name then because this is not even goulash which is a stew. Call itt bolognese or something else...

@@viragmate-kovacs Where did I call it goulash? Oh, that’s right, I didn’t. There are variations around the country of the same, basic recipe. I never called it goulash because that’s not what we call it where I’m from. What is it with people that think THEIR way is the only correct way? 🙄
