Recipe': Hungarian Ghoulash



After a month hiatus, I am back with a new recipe. I've decided to pull up one of my childhood favorites. My mother used to make Ghoulash a lot when I was a kid. Mainly because it is easy, quick and economical. I have, of course, added a couple of things, and put my own spin on the dish. And I think you are really going to like this comfort food from Eastern Europe.

Ingredients:

2 1/2 Cups Macaroni
1 lb. 85% Lean Ground Beef
1/4 Cup of Veggie Gruel
1 Tbls EVOO
2 Cloves Fresh Garlic, Sliced
1 Tbls Hungarian Paprika
1 Tbls Oregano
1 Tbls Basil
1 Can Tomato Sauce

Instructions:

Heat frying pan or Wok with EVOO and garlic on Medium. Saute Veggie Gruel. Add ground beef. Mix Paprika, Oregano and Basil together in small bowl. As meat browns, add spice mix. Meanwhile, bowl macaroni in large pot to al dente. Drain macaroni and put back in pot. Once beef mixture is thoroughly cooked, add it to macaroni. Add tomato sauce to pot. Mix thoroughly. Put pot back on medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with fried potato sticks and black-eyed peas as perfect complement.

Bon Appetit!
