Guess what’s for dinner tonight? That’s right, I’m making the goulash recipe that my mom used to make. Of course, I’ve added more herbs (I love my basil) and dress it up a bit with shredded Parmesan cheese (the real stuff, not the grated stuff that doesn’t look like cheese!). What I like about this dish is that it’s quick to make (under 30 minutes), very filling, and you can usually put it together using what’s in your pantry. I like Aldi’s Tomato, Garlic, Basil pasta sauce, though you’re welcome to use whatever flavor you have on hand.
And now, the recipe…
