Southern Goulash
Ingredients
1 lb ground chuck
1 md onion, chopped
1/3 c red or green bell pepper chopped
2 c elbow macaroni, uncooked
1 can diced fire roasted tomatoes, 15 oz
1 can tomato sauce, 15 oz
4 c water
1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp seasoning salt
1 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning, like Tony Chachere
1/2 c grated Parmesan cheese
dash of tobasco
2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions
1. Brown ground beef along with the chopped onion and the chopped bell pepper. Drain fat, return to pan.
2. Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and seasonings.
3. Then add macaroni and water.
4. Bring to a boil then turn to low. Stir well to be sure it isn't sticking.
5. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the macaroni is tender and most of the water is absorbed. If it seems too dry add a little more water. If it's too liquid, just leave the top off for a little while and turn the heat up a little. The extra water will evaporate. It's usually not too moist, but sometimes you do have to add a little water. Don't overcook the pasta.
6. Add the Parmesan and the cheddar cheeses, stir. You can just cover and let it melt on the stove.
7. Serve.
(I'll add more recipes as I'm able. @"Ninurta" won't eat chicken so I have a few ground beef recipes in my repertoire)
