COUNTRY GOULASH

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, onion, and garlic in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Season beef with paprika, black pepper, and seasoned salt. Stir tomato sauce and tomato paste into the beef mixture until smooth. Pour water over the beef; add macaroni and stir.
• Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer mixture, adding water as needed to maintain your desired consistency, until the macaroni is tender yet firm to the bit, about 20 minutes. Adjust seasoning before serving.

Steps:

• Mince garlic and dice carrots and celery fine while heating oil. Sautee all together over medium heat until slightly translucent. Add corn, stir until thawed, and add beef broth and rotel. When this has come to a simmer, add bbq, tomato paste, condiments and seasoning. Allow to simmer until heated through and thickened, tasting and adjusting seasonings before serving. Serve on a bed of rice (or mashed potatoes would be good, too) topped with cheese, sour cream dollop, and a sprinkle of green onion. Yeeee-Haw!
