Receta Goulash
I love to have a big pot or bowl of something in the fridge to get us through the week - a dinner or lunch that's ready to go without any last minute work. It might be a hearty pasta salad or casserole. This week it's been Goulash. My cookbook identifies the recipe as Hungarian, but my husband tells me he's eaten goulash in Poland too, however, in Poland, it is a soup and not served with noodles.
PS - Coincidentally, this recipe and my package of noodles were both 6 servings. After this photo was taken, they and the asparagus were packed up into 6 storage containers and into the fridge. Two minutes in the microwave, and our meal is ready.
