Simple Pasta Goulash

This Simple Pasta Goulash is the North American version of goulash. 

Let’s talk comfort food. It just is…it is one of those meals I can prep quickly and have left overs for lunches. It is simple, yet delicious, affordable yet not loaded with preservatives. It is perfection in a skillet! (At least I feel this way 🙂 )

Goulash became one of my faves since I started cooking for myself in college. It is easy, affordable and great as left overs. Key factors to consider when you are a poor student, but also very appropriate for a busy mom (20+ years later!). 

While you can add more veggies or cheese, I keep mine simple and basic most times I make it.
