This was really great and easy to put together! I made it on the stove top b/c my microwave isn't the best, but it STILL turned out great! Topped w/some mozzarella cheese - will definitely keep in my recipe rotation this fall/winter.

My hubby thought this was fantastic. Even though I wasn't AS impressed...I sure was happy with how easy it was to prepare. We will make again when we need something quick.

I was really disappointed...my mom's was much better than this. I will be going back to that recipe. No one in my family really like this. It was OK...just not great.

This is good but I would have left the caraway seeds out (personal preference). I made a few changes...I used 1/2 sirloin and 1/2 jimmy dean hot sausage. I increased the oregano to hide the taste of the caraway seed. I cooked it on the stovetop also and used the whole can of tomato sauce. I also used 1 can of tomato's with green chili's instead of just tomato's

This was good, though more time consuming than I anticipated. I will make it again. It made way more than 6 servings, which was great for leftovers. The next day I added some garlic salt, grated parmesean and a little water (mine was not very saucy) before heating it all up over the stovetop. This dressed up the flavor somewhat.

This was delicious! The only change I made is that I could only find a 15 oz tomato sauce and that was fine because I had 1.1 lbs of ground beef. Turned out perfect in the microwave and I didn't change the seasonings at all.

this was ok. i served it with homemade corn bread but my boyfriend thought it was terrible. it might be because he has always had authentic polish goulash his whole life and this is nothing like that. to make it more like a stew i added water, diced potatoes, and carrots. serving it with sour cream made me like it a lot more.

I made this recipe last night and added fresh mushrooms that I needed to use before they went bad and instead of diced tomatoes I used crushed tomatoes because that's what I had in my pantry. I was totally excited with the results!! This is an easy, quick recipe. I cook for 100 people several times a year and I'm going to add this recipe! Thank you for sharing!!

This was very tasty! This is the best tasting american/midwest goulash we've eaten. I browned the meat in a skillet and used dried minced onion (almost 2T worth) but did the rest in the microwave. Definitely a keeper. Thanks for sharing your recipe Terry!

This was a real hit with my family. The only thing is be careful with the pepper. A little goes a long way. We will probably take that part right out. So much better then my mom made growing up.

This recipe was a great, quick dinner for my daughter and I one random night. I did put it all together on my stove top, and as a vegetarian, I omitted the beef along with 1/2 can of tomato sauce. It bridged the gap that has always existed between my childhood ideals of my mom's salty goulash and my friend's mom's sweet goulash. And I might try to add a couple traditional goulash veggies--whatever those are--next time.

This is a really good recipe--it's simple, economical, and requires only a minimum of cookware to prepare. It used basic ingredients I already had on hand, and the combination of spices made it very tasty. I like the fact that it uses pasta to help stretch a pound of ground beef. I think it would be very flexible, too--you could add a can of vegetables, or beans, or whatever you have on hand that strikes your fancy. The only minor adjustments I made were the cooking times: I cooked the ground beef and chopped veggies for a total of 8 minutes on High; the sauce for 15 minutes on power level 8; and after adding the macaroni, I heated it for 5 minutes on High. I served it sprinkled with Parmesan and a side of garlic bread.

This was very good. My husband even had seconds. I used penne pasta and omitted the caraway seeds. I add a can of kidney beans and chopped up some frozen mixed bell peppers that I had. When I served it, I added some Parmesan cheese. I am looking forward to having the left overs for lunch this week.

This is very good. I omitted the caraway as well, halved the sugar, and added a can of rinsed kidney beans (old Weight Watchers habit). Also cooked it on the stovetop.

I didn't follow this exactly, I used jarred spaghetti sauce instead of the tomato sauce and tomoatoes. But, what I ended up with was quite good!

This was indeed the goulash I grew up with. My mother passed away, suddenly, 4 years ago and I have been trying to recreate this since then. The only thing I remember my mother adding was Worcestershire Sauce and instant beef bullion. THanks for all your work on this recipe I will treasure it forever.
