How To Make Goulash
Goulash is a soup or stew of meat, usually seasoned with paprika and other spices. Originating from the medieval Hungary, goulash is a popular meal predominantly eaten in Central Europe but also in other parts of Europe.
Have you tried it before? We love goulash in our home and although I’m sure we have a very American version of the recipe, we wanted to make sure we shared our Cheesy Beef Goulash recipe with you today – because it’s delicious! It is filled with noodles, hamburger, tomatoes and cheese!!
Although we really don’t consider our “American Goulash” (or “Old Fashioned Goulash”) a stew, we love this cheesy dish that can be easily modified based on the ingredients you love most. Although this recipe has a number of different seasonings, it is simple enough to please all ages. The whole family loves it, and I love because it’s simple and tasty.

- 3 tsp minced garlic
- 3 c water

- 3 TB soy sauce
- 1 TB seasoned salt
- 2 TB Italian seasoning
