    At college during the early 90's in Texas, we called the goulash 'Train Wreck Stew', adding potatoes into the mix. This kept us and friends fed when the university cafeteria was closed on weekends.

    All of the American Chop Suey I ate in New England had celery in it too. I always just used canned tomatoes and not the juice or sauce. It actually was a lunch special in a lot of coffee shops. Here in Va., I call it Beefaroni so people know what I'm talking about. I love it! 😊

      Mom had 7 year stew, not her naming but ours: not actual years, but whenever the container was full enough for 6. We would have goulash, soups and stews on the weekly in the 1970's (easy meals), and any leftovers would be poured onto of the previous week of frozen soupish stuff in the freezer. Waste not, want not, and all that. When thawed, it had no discernible taste or flavor: that mish-mash was simply fuel at that point, a hot meal. Dad was born 30, Mom 41, so that was the mentality: if you didn't like it then tough. Suck it up, buttercup, since we don't waste food!

    It's "Macaroni Surprise" in my family. Ours has the addition of corn. Also ours doesn't taste Italian or Tex Mex. It's a light tomato flavor that's a little sweet and a little salty. Very little Italian seasoning goes in. A gentle shake of chili powder and garlic. A splash of worcestershire sauce. A pinch of sugar.

    Many years ago when my kids were young, they're all adults now. I used to always make goulash after we had spaghetti and meat sauce, l would use the leftover spaghetti sauce and add more hamburger, onions and bell peppers to that along with macaroni. The kids loved it and l didn't have spaghetti sauce go to waste. Just like red enchiladas, l would use leftover red chili sauce (homemade with red chili pods), l would make red chili stew to use up the leftover red chili sauce. I have 6 kids, so l learned to stretch things to the limit to make sure everybody got fed. I had 6 kids and fed them on the cheap, none of them ever died from starvation. Peace 🕊️
