My Moms' Goody Goulash

                                                                         

This was always one of my favorite meals as a child & is now one of my comfort foods. The plus is it is easy, fast & cheap to make. I mix up the type of ground meat to give it a different flare each time I make it. You can use many options for the add ins too! Kids & adults will love my Moms' Goody Goulash!

1&1/2 Pounds Ground Burger, or Ground Turkey, or Ground White Meat Chicken which is what I used in this, or Loose Sausage that could be Sweet Italian, Hot Italian or just Country Style Loose Sausage!

1 Onion Chopped

1 Rib of Celery Chopped & this adds great flavor & texture I highly recommend you do not leave it out of the recipe

Chopped Green Pepper is an Option I would use 1 whole pepper

1 Cup Chopped Mushrooms is an option

1/2 Box Elbow Macaroni cooked per package directions, I cook a whole box  use 1/2 for this recipe & 1/2 for Macaroni Salad or Pasta Salad.

32 Ounces of your Favorite Jar Sauce, I use Prego Chunky Garden Harvest Pasta Sauce

2 Cups Pizza Cheese Shredded or use you favorite cheese!

Brown the meat with the chopped vegetables, drain if needed. Now stir in the cooked elbow macaroni & the sauce. Cook & stir until hot & bubbling. Cover the top with the 2 cups of cheese & let it melt. Dish up! Serves 6 large servings!
