fuzzyredThis week I am making Southwestern Goulash form the tasteofhome 2012 Annual Recips cookbook.
( Recipe )
Thoughts and Variations
I used half a large purple onion, because it was in my fridge and I wanted to use it up. I also used one Hungarian hot pepper (probably about 3 ounces or so), because I can't buy 4 ounce cans of green chilies here. I also left out the cilantro because I thought it was less than a quarter cup and I don't like wasting it (the store bundles are always way too big). Plus, it tastes kind of odd to me, so I gave it a pass.
This is more like a chilli than a traditional "goulash" to me, but it is still tasty. I find using just the hungarian pepper gave it a little kick, but not near as much as the chilli powder, so it works just right for me. It may not be much of a goulash, but I'm definitely getting the southwestern vibe from it and the macaroni does absorb a lot of the liquid to give it a stew-y goulash type vibe. Overall, very yummy and a nice alternative to chilli if you don't like beans in it. Will make this again. :)
