30 Minute Goulash

This is, hands down, a family favorite. 

 
Which makes me wonder why I haven't made it lately. So when I started putting it together for dinner, my family were like, "YES!". 

Then we had to go sit for 2 hours and watch a softball game in 40F weather. Brrr. 

So coming home to and having a steaming bowl of Goulash was a welcome comfort. The added bonus is that this is really a "30 Minute Meal".

I t can be made with your favorite ground meat or even TVP or tofu for a vegetarian version. 
This is one of the only reasons I keep canned green beans in my pantry,(just so not a canned veg girl-blech!), but in this recipe they are perfect. 

Give this a try, I really think it may make its way into your family's meal rotation. 

 Top it with your favorite cheese!!

Ingredients:

1 lb. elbow noodles

1.25 lbs of lean ground beef, pork, chicken or your favorite meat-free go to
