This is recipe is one that my mom used to make all the time. It is super easy and yummy. My kiddos really like this recipe. It is really good just as it is, or if you have left overs the next day it is really good with tostito chips, fitos, or tortillas. The ultimate quick man meal. My husband always wants me to cook this, and the left overs are just as good if not better. :)

POOR MAN'S HUNGARIAN GOULASH



Poor Man's Hungarian Goulash image

This one of my favorite stovetop 'one-dish' meals... It's really a Goulash recipe that's been 'adapted' into lighter fare and for lactose intolerance... Macaroni instead of egg noodles and the macaroni is actually added to the mixture instead of the mixture served over the macaroni... There is no sour cream (for the lactose intolerant!) and chili powder is used instead of paprika for a 'kick'... I love having this in the wintertime, it really warms me up!
