holy shit, are you from shortsville?
I finally made this tonight Chef. School goulash never tasted this good!

This was called American Chop Suey when I was a child. Our Hungarian Goulash was different.

Another one in the rotation. Thanks Chef John! You have no idea how much you've helped this single dad.
Hey man I’m not a father but as a son I can tell you your kids will grow up to appreciate everything you do for them.
Single dads deserve the world
Ok
@@TalkS1ck3only if you're actually a part of their lives lol.
Just made this for my dad. It was one of his favorite dishes his mom would make him when he was a kid. He said this was EXACTLY how he remembers it! Thank you so much for giving my dad a little glimpse of his childhood and his mom
My Wife and I are retired Air Force. She ran the Dinning Facility and I would ONLY eat Goulash if she made it. She DID NOT follow Air Force "Recipe cards" she made it like this recipe. When she cooked they couldn't keep food on the line. She was the Steve Segal of the Chow Hall.
I love how the Air Force called them Dining Facility and not Chow Hall

My mom was a cafeteria lady. She didn't follow the school's recipe. She did a lot like this.

This was my favorite recipe when I was young. We grew up pretty poor for a few years. This was the highlight meal that always made us feel like we were having an upscale dinner.
I was thinking the same thing. This was a meal we had when mom and dad had a little extra money for groceries
A neighbor man called it “gut filler”
But it was an upscale meal. I've been to many 5 star restaurants, but in the end I would rather eat a meal like this if it were my last.
@@grammajastram2080 that was a mean man 👨 😪
@@hellodolly9879 me too! something hearty and homey beats fancy and expensive everytime
When I was pregnant, I made this in double batches and it was my go-to breakfast, lunch, and supper until it was gone. My whole family loves it, including the toddler who got a lot of it in the womb. 😁 My husband just made it for me again and I've managed the restraint to only eat it for lunch and supper two days straight.
I'm not American nor do I live in the USA so I'd never heard of American Goulash, but I stumbled upon this video accidentally and this has filled a food void in my life that I didn't know I had.
Plus I'm pregnant at the moment and this was an instant craving - made it straight away and it was amazing!
Thanks Chef John and greetings from Australia!
I’m from America and I thought only my family ate goulash haha. Usually people just call this pasta with meat sauce nowadays.
Congrats!
If you dice a few bell peppers (you might call them capsicums) and throw them in with the tomatoes it adds a really nice flavor.
Mama added pinto beans to it for added protein since meat was expensive and we were poor.
I make good money now but still put beans in my "goulash"to this day.
sounds like the chili mac my mom used to make.
Beans and wheat (or rice) together will give you all the essential amino acids just like meat does. 👍
That's basically pasta fagioli
How much money do you make? Are u single?

Thank you for the school cafeteria memories and here's to all those patient and underappreciated lunch ladies. 🎉
I was a lunch man.
Its funny, i am a lunch aid, but i dont work in the kitchen. I supervise the students in the cafeteria and on the playground. But we still get called "lunch lady" ....

It was a HUGE hit back in the 70's in Air Force (and a few Navy) chow halls.
Still is
please make the next grade school favorite: square pizza

How about hamburger gravy?
i loved those breakfast corndogs lol
OH I'm having a drool attack! My kids had the healthy pizza in school. I have told them the stories of how NO ONE packed lunch on Friday because of the delicious (probably had a dangerous level of sodium) square pizza...
Anyone else have "walking tacos" at school? They were just single serving bags of doritos with taco meat, lettuce and shredded cheese mixed together. Definitely a favorite in my area
In New England we call this American Chop Suey, and it usually has green bell pepper.
Definitely going to try this recipe out!
Do not confuse Chop Suey with Gulash. Chop Suey gets Worcestershire sauce and doesn't get any broth so it's much thicker and also gets a little sugar to make it sweeter compared to this Gulash. Also, you're right that Chop Suey gets bell pepper too. Also carrots if you like.
My mom made this as well - with Bell Peppers (and she was fancy cause Mozz) - called it "Guess What"
Yes, I'm a New Englander, American Chop Suey I never put green peppers in mine. This recipe is much better.
Carey Townsend nah it’s exactly the same in my house
There was no cheese, and it was definitely Worcestershire sauce, and bell pepper for sure
I grew up in the 60s and early 70; in Maine, We always called this American chop suey. I remember how good it was.
Back in hills of West Virginia in the late 60s, our school cooks, there were three of them and all old enough to be my grandmother, were the first ones there everyday, and everyday they made fresh yeast rolls! As a senior, one day I waltzed into the kitchen like I owned the place. I announced myself as the school board's official roll taster. Mrs. Tencher, a woman from our church, grabbed a roll from the cooling rack, slathered with fresh butter, and handed it to me. That was heaven! It became my weekly MO, and that dear lady was sweet enough to indulge me. And yes, their beef and macaroni was to die for! Everything they cooked was always fantastic. Now that was some good eatin' with freshly baked rolls. Thanks for the memories, Chef John!
Egyptian goulash is filo pastry stuffed with ground beef with onions and full of butter ( or ghee) between each layer :D
Meaty baklava. I dig it
Sounds delish, and quite similar to 'borek' which could also be described as meat baklava.🤤
@Anne now that you mention it, I actually have a cheese and spinach burek in my freezer right now...maybe I'll heat it up for dinner tonight.🤤
Post it !!
ikr! Whenever I hear goulash, I see pastry filled with beef or cheese, definitely not pasta haha
Fall is my favorite time for Chef John recipes. I like the savory, hearty dishes he gives as the days grow shorter and cooler.
My boyfriend and I were talking about what to eat for dinner, he begins to say "i had it in high school, it was seasoned beef with noodles"
I said oh, Goulash, of course we can make that. We both got very excited watching this and it came out looking exactly the same!
Thanks Chef John! 😃
Still to this day one of my favorite Chef John recipes. This and Greek lemon chicken as well as some baked hot wings he did with parmesan and red pepper flakes.
This goulash is stupid good.
are you guys sure this is Goulash???
Yes - we're sure... we're Hungarian
Magyar vagyok, és ez szemetes
This is American goulash. Tastes pretty good... Hungarian gulyas is nothing like this, and is absolutely delicious.

I made this for dinner tonight! This dish brought me right back to my childhood in the 1970's! I had a big bowl of Goulash with soft white bread and butter and chocolate cake for desert. In my minds eye I could see my Mom in the kitchen in my childhood home!! Thanks for the Blast from the Past chef John!! Your the best!!
"We're sure, we're Hungarian!" I'm American, but oddly enough, my first goulash experience was in Budapest! I've only recently discovered the American variant.
Only difference, when cooking for my brood of 9, I added a chopped bell pepper, but no paprika or soy sauce. I usually used garlic powder instead of fresh...as a mainstay. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Your recipes and delivery style are "the bomb"... Love it!!
This is how my mom made it - added chopped bell pepper, but no paprika or soy sauce - except my dad hated cooked tomatoes so she just used tomato sauce; no soy but splash of Worcestershire. Funny, but it is my grands' favorite meal now .....
Soy sauce works wonders in this dish!
Wouldn't think that hungerians would use soy or wistashire sauce ..i like the sound of using bell peppers because id expected it would be on them makes scents
Worcestershire sauce is more traditional. It can’t be American goulash without paprika that’s one of the main flavoring.
I usually try to maintain “dry bottom status“.
I knew someone would pick up on the “dry bottom”! 😉
Team Crisco here
For a bit of a different flavor. Use Italian sausage in place of the ground beef.
Yavol!
Chef John has an excellent recipe for EYE-talian SAW-sage, too! ruclips.net/video/gVxO4eAlmew/видео.html
You sir, I like the cut of your jib.
why not use both?
I do a lb of ground beef, a lb of ground pork, and a lb of Italian sausage. Ooooh yes, It's 2:25am and opening the kitchen back up!
My grandma made this for me when I was a kid! She had onions, meat, garlic, tomato paste, and tomato sauce. 😂 she would also cook the pasta separately as she was cooking the meat. (Secret was that she used frozen pre cut onions) Can’t wait to try your version and relove goolash again! 🥰🥰
..."the Chuck Mangione of your Beefaroni". John, it 'feels so good' to make your recipes!
OMG, I cannot stop laughing. Good one!!!!
It’s SO GOOD!
I've enjoyed a simpler version of this my dad taught me when I was a young lad. He called it Beachcombers delight and just the basic seasoning was salt and pepper. When the onions and beef have cooked add the diced tomatoes and cook till the pan is dry. Fold the cooked macaroni into it and then the star of the dish is the cheddar cheese. Stir till the cheese is melted and serve with garlic toast. I will definitely try Chef Johns version as it sounds even more scrumptious.
3:05 I was really hoping he was going to say "so those flavors can get to know each other."
Loved this recipe so much that I made it again...just days after making it the first time. Tip: this dish is MUCH better the day AFTER you make it. The flavors mingle/shake hands/ get to know each other, etc.
Can I substitute the pasta for cabbage? Low carb is what I’m after- update. I tried it with cabbage. It works and was great!
I’m doing this today, thank you for the inspiration ☺️
Cabbage and beans sound like an excellent substitute. Then you would come close to the bean and cabbage soup at Shoney's which is flavorful as well. Mmm 😋 now I'm really hungry. Thanks for mentioning this! 👍
3 years late I know but how did you cook the cabbage? Did you just wilt it in the pan until it was soft or did you boil it first?
@@MrFredstt Good question, tried it yet? I'm thinking it would need to be softened first separately before tossing it in, if you were keeping cook times similar to CJ's recipe here. Otherwise, a longer cook time to break down the raw cabbage probably wouldn't be a bad idea, all of what's in there would benefit from some stewing time. 😊
Yeah you can. Look up how long it takes to cook raw cabbage
Hey Chef John, I'm here to see you make culinary magic! I'm addicted to your channel and I have my friends watching your channel while we're at work. Thanks for sharing your recipe and magic with us here in Texas!!!
B-E-E-F-A-R-O-N-I , that is so hard to type out during cocktail time.
and we helped...I think they called ...hamburger helper....loll
I rushed here after supper to give you big thanks for this fantastic take on the classic dish! I've eaten and made many pots of "beef macaroni" but this recipe's technique and ingredient choices creates the PERFECT bowl of American (or Canadian!) goulash. No excess acidity from the tomatoes, flavorful beef from all the simmering, perfect texture on the macaroni, aaaaaah. It's warm and comforting and perfect.
have been a silent viewer for years and i’m here to tell you to keep up the good work! the recipes are delicious, video quality is great and your narrations are always so amazing 😂 love your videos!!
This was called "chili mac" at my school growing up and was served every other Tuesday and was by far the most popular hot lunch that was served. Happy to see a recipe for something like it!
Am I the only person who tries to track the bay leaves through the course of the video?
Darke Wolfie ditto! It was giving me anxiety.
I was like "PULL THE DAMN BAY LEAVES!" every time I was certain he was done
haha, I was waiting for the 'pull the bay leaves out now' part
do those even do anything?
@@agn728 I thought the exact same thing. "At what point is he going to say 'pull out the bay leaves'?" Perhaps it was a game in his house, to who got the bay leaves. My mom would leave them in stew, and say it was good luck to get the leaf.
thank you for all the time you've put into these. I've watched cooking shows since I was a teen and never cared to try make it. But your Charisma and humor has taught me to appreciate cooking.
Chef John, this is amazing. Type off filling and comfort food I needed. I modified the recipe a little bit by adding second onion, chopped in large chunks, and can of butter beans. I'm watching your channel since a month, and this is the first recipe I used, not regretting it at all. Please do more one pot dishes, as I only can make these at the moment.
I love that one of your favorite childhood memories at school is food, not studying, making friends, playing sports, learning a musical instrument. I like a person who knows what they like. LOL.
Thanks for bringing back the childhood memories Chef. Lovely recipe as always.
Chef John, I've recently discovered your channel here, and I've been looking at a lot of your recipes just to get some ideas on cooking new things, and I've enjoyed the ones I've tried. Thank you.
This is similar to a dish I make during the winter months. I start off the same way you do, and add the same ingredients, but I also add a cup of dry red wine to it as well as Worchestershire sauce and Louisiana Hot sauce, and I also add fresh sliced mushrooms to it. About the same time I add the pasta, I also add a drained can of whole kernel sweet corn. This usually has a lot of people doing a double-take, until they try it. Everyone loves it.
I used to call this my version of Goulash, until a friend of mine saw me making this one day, and told me his Mom used to make something like this when he was little and she called it "Sticks and Bugs!" So, that's what I call it now.
My family originated in Iowa & I grew up on this type of goulash. The only differences were less spices, tomato sauce instead of marinara & the addition of 1/2 can of kernal corn (drained) . We also add a tablespoon of sugar to cut the acidity. It's one of the comfort foods I still love. The lack of Mexican or Italian flavors is a nice change of pace, as I traditionally use more complex & robust flavors. Sometimes you just want something really simple.
I’ve always loved this stuff! It’s comfort food and it’s excellent the next day too. 🇨🇦👍
BETTER the Next day !

Now *that’s* a taste-testing spoon!
It’s the only kind my dad used, and it’s what each of my seven siblings and I use to this day.
Oh man, I remember this from my childhood. Yum. The lunch ladies did it right!! Mine always put American cheese on it. Not a fancy school in New Jersey.. LOL
Basically the same recipe I grew up with in Utah. We add can mushrooms and green pepper. A comfort food by any other name is still soooooo good. :)
I just made this today and it was.... excellent! It had so much flavor and I'm actually surprised I made a dish as amazing as this. I used Beef broth instead of chicken, and added in green bellpeppers and it was so good.
One person has never had this cold between two pieces of Wonder bread with butter!
DevInvest bruh!!! Growing up we never had leftovers of this!!
Drew laird Yeah, well I was a portly lil’ Welsh lad and my Grandmother would make double batches just for Grandfathers sandwiches of this,, which is how I became a fan..
But, yes, this stuff went down fast at dinner, best not be shy about loading up!
how i would kill to go back....
it's meeee:)
@@Scooterdrew1 Either did we - always had to make those sandwiches at the dinner table..can still remember licking the melted butter off my arm...lol!
This is so good! I grew up on what my mom called 'macarooni 'a viande' with no spices and only a particular type of condensed cream of tomato soup as the sauce. We loved it, but now I've discovered how to cook with your help. Thank you!
This is one of our new weeknight favorites! Thanks Chef!
@Chef John: this dish has some interesting similarities with one I was raised on in Germany, Haschee. The way of preparation is closer to the German variant than the Italian dishes like Ragu Bolognese. Just leave out the marinara sauce and the soy sauce and change the Italian herbs to more northern ones (the tomatoes are optional) and you get that.
Optional are mushrooms which gives it a much more distinctive taste.
I´m always surprised how much German (or in this case North European cuisine because it´s a dish eaten under different names all over Europe) recipes influenced American cuisine because I didn´t expect that.
As always, great video!
Well, I don't live in the US, so calling it 'American Goulash' and pretending to be kinda exotic, will maybe get me l... lots of compliments.
It's not exotic. Lol. But, it was a run off on the German original, but adding tomatoes to it, not making spaetzle, and adding cheap ground meat...or whatever protien.
@@LucretiaVanPelt german roots? XD Goulash aka Gulyás (leves) is hungarian food. Yes, a lot of other nations adapted it in 20th century but its a hungarikum (hereditary of hungarian nation).
@@keserutimea I didn't say that it started in Germany. But, American Goulash was influenced by the German, and even French and Italian versions. Hungary was speaking German, much to their chagrin. Gulasch in German...probably got it from its Hungarian name, the Hungarian version didn't have a version with a form of pasta, and was thinner in consistency than German/Austrian/Czech versions. And, I bet that surrounding countries adopted it much before the 20th century. Thank you for your input.
I'm American born and raised , We here put our own spin on things...LOL...some times good ....some times not...LOL
@@LucretiaVanPelt well, not really. On one hand, Hungarians never spoke German. The country was multi-ethnic and everyone spoke their own language while the language of the legislation was Latin, replaced by Hungarian in the 1840s. Josheph II tried to make German the language of the legislation but he couldn't push it through the Hungarian Diet. And as much as Goulash goes the thicker German/Czech version is also originally Hungarian, we just call it pörkölt. Somehow the nations around us only got pörkölt, but with the name of the soup.
They called this chili mac at our school and I loved it. They used red kidney beans also. Can't wait to make this. Thank you Chef John.
That's what they called it at school here Chili Mac.. been making it forever... mom made when I was a kid 60 years ago she calls it Goulash.. Chili mac to me... I'll make it tonight with the spices and herbs Chef John used and have a try... I usually just use chili spice..
Thank you for cooking the moisture out and not draining away all of that amazing flavor!!!!!! I can watch your channel for hours!!!
So, Chef Boy-R-John just made Beef-a-roni!!!
I am very jealous that you got this gem for school food. My school food in Sweden was one of the worst things i've ever eaten. 4 days a week it would be overcooked codfish with an abysmal tasting sauce with over/undercooked potatoes... I would often not eat it and bring my own food.
Because you reminded me of this I will cook this for redemption!
Don't worry, American public school lunches have gotten far worse.
Every Wednesday my jr and sr high schools had enchiladas or tamales, beans, rice and chocolate cake. Fridays was always fried fish day. I always remember elementary school had a huge vat of boiled spinach with 1/2 boiled egg in the pan. That egg was scary.
I never got this in school. We had chicken patties with foreign objects in them. I learned not to eat lunch in elementary school. And I learned not to eat breakfast in middle school. My mom's not a good cook, but dinner was always delicious.
Getting ready to cook this now. You brought me right back when you reminisced about cafeteria Goulash with white bread and milk. This was back in the 70’s when lunch ladies actually “cooked” the food. Good times. Goulash is tied with Frito Bake as my favorite cafeteria food..
Thank you my Grandma use to make this for her restaurant. When I asked her for the recipe she said a little of this and a little of that. So nice to have the actual recipe :)
Wow! My mom used to make a version of this we simply called "Hamburger Hot Dish" (my family originates from Minnesota) but she would brown everything and cook it down and put it all together and then bake it as a casserole (most likely because both of my parents worked so that made it convenient to make ahead and then heat until bubbly at dinner time). Thanks for the memories!
I love the name! 🥰
You are the Johnny Marzetti of your beef and not-spaghetti.

Chef John we love you and your fabulous recipes! I saw that you were looking for ideas for merch and loved this episode and your rhyme, "You are the Chuck Mangione of your beefaroni." I died laughing, I am a musician and this made my day. Put that on a T-shirt!! :) Greetings from Cromwell, Connecticut!
Hello chef John.
I made this for my wife twice and it was a blast. Thank you so much.
Second time I added carrot, celery and some panceta to the onion in the beggining. Ten minutes into cooking it I added diced green bell pepper. And at the end I added sauted swiss brown mushrooms. It was amazing. Only the mushrooms were unnecesary. Everything else made it a step above.
Thank you so much John
LoL. A Chuck Mangione/Feels so Good reference. I love it! One of my favorite Flugelhorn artists…🤔 well I really can’t think of anyone else that played Flugelhorn.
Wow this reminds me of my grandmother. She used to make it all the time. Thank you for this recipe!
Made this tonight and it is the most flavorful goulash I have ever had kudos Chef John thanks for making dishes easy and inspiring. Keep it up look forward to trying more.
I made this over this weekend and it was amazing. I used ground turkey instead of beef and I loved how it turned out! Thank you for upping the meal game at our house!!
My doctor asked me what I ate and I showed him my weekly diet agenda. He couldn't understand my extra weight. I said I watched Chef John videos.
He understood.
Gosh I love this Goulash!
This is how I remember my cafeteria Goulash from my childhood days. The cafeteria where I went to school was staffed by a bunch of ladies with Swedish, Norwegian, and Bohemian ancestry. So many of the dishes they made came from the old world but changed a bit to "Americanize" them. Casseroles were huge where I grew up as not just good hearty food but also because you could feed a large family fairly in expensively.
Watching Chef John make and eat this put me in the "way back" machine. Being 9 years old watching mom make this, asking over and over "is it done yet"? Wow! So good.... It's as delicious visually as it is virtually. Thanks Chef John.
Awesome recipe, and so easy to follow!! Just finished making it.
I just made this and am astounded at how good it is. This recipe is perfect.
I made this tonight with your spaetzle recipe and a German braised red cabbage recipe that I found online. It was SO DELICIOUS! Thank you for these videos and recipes, I love watching them! I also made your cabbage and potato soup and that was amazing, can't wait to try more!!
Oh, I remember eating this for the first time in the cafeteria in 8th grade back in 1975. I was 13 years old. And I came to love it. As I grew up, I didn't get to eat that Goulash anymore because wherever I went to school, the cafeterias didn't serve it. Now after seeing your video, good memories came back. I will surely make this dish soon; the way you made it. Thank you so much for sharing!!!!
Here in MA we use to call this American chop suey. 60 years still love it.💕
TheCybertiger9 I live in Ma too! I just left the same exact comment as yours. It’s the only thing I’ve ever known it by. Must be a New England thing?! We’re definitely the right ones 😂
I did it and had amazing results, thank you so much! I absolutely loved this and all your recipes may God bless your hands. You are my favorite chef you are definitely #1
I live for the "you are after all" comments. Love this channel! ❤❤
Made this twice so far. One of our family faves, thanks Chef John!
I use both worcestshire (however you spell it) and soy sauce in mine! Haha another great video on a classic American fave! Thanks Chef John! 😊😋
*Worcestershire sauce or just Worcester sauce 😊 gotta love the English language sometimes. From a Brit x
(worcestershire)
The Brits pronounce it “Wooster” sauce. They laugh at us for making it so difficult!
@@thelasticonoclast9467 Aww I wouldn't laugh at you guys, some British people can't even pronounce some of our weirdly spelt place names! You're right, it's 'Woostershuh' (woo sound as in whoosh) I live in Leicestershire (Lestershuh) and I don't blame anyone for not getting that right. Anyways, we make something similar to 'goulash' but cook the pasta separately and either mix it in at the end or just plop the sauce on top. I really want some now.
Worcestershire is more traditional. I didn’t know anyone used soy sauce and my great grandma was from Hungary. That’s what everyone I knew used.
i grew up on Hungarian goulash.
When i was young i would tell my friends i was having goulash for dinner. they would always ask, which one? the orange one or the red one? I had to dumb it down and say the orange one... everyone was always jealous of the orange one.
I remember making "Goulash " for my husband for the first time....and when I presented him with American Goulash, instead of the Hungarian or German style, it was as if I insulted his senses.
My mom is German and always made the German version. No tomato anything in it, just a delicious brown sauce with chunks of roast or pork, made with noodles or over chunks of cooked potatoes. So good. I’m going to try the American version....we shall see what’s better.
I've made this recipe countless times and it may just be my favorite meal. A simple one-pot that fills you up and leaves great leftovers. Truly an all-timer.
I loved this dish as a kid. I learned how to make it at 16 from a wonderful Texan nurse named Louella. She called it Irish Slum Gullion. It had Worcestershire sauce. It became a family favorite. Haven’t had it in ages. I’m going to make it tomorrow. Thank you 🙏🏼
This is the way my mom makes "Italian" macaroni, except for maybe the spoon of paprika. I'm Dutch by the way.
Haha, same here, and also Dutch. Replace paprika powder with bell peppers and done.
Your making me hungry for food from America-Hungary!
Made this the other night- absolutely a delicious, savoury goulash way better than I normally throw together. Thanks Chef John! Love all your videos.
Made this today. So totally awesome. Certainly a keeper recipe. Thank you John and Michelle(your inspiration!).
That looks delicious!
*pops open a tin of Chef Boyardee*
😂🤣😂🤣
Looks like Goulash to me. I grew up in a Lutheran Church in the midwest. There are options to add if you want, but then you might have to rename it hotdish.
Hot dish rules!! 😄
POT LUCK! ❤️✨
Minnesota? Up there we used to have hotdish with bars for dessert.
I made this today. I need to make more to freeze, this recipe is absolutely delicious!
definitely a mid-fall/winter meal for extra happiness points.
I was just watching your hungarian recipe video yesterday. Must be the food gods telling me to make one of these. Lol
It's almost that time of year for warm comfort food!! Extra good in front of a roaring fire
*Definitely* make Chef John's Hungarian Goulash recipe. It's actually better than Wolfgang Puck's.
Growing up we called this Johnny Marzetti in Ohio. It was usually Wednesday in the school lunch menu. They used Worschershire sauce. BTW. In New England, this is called American chop suey.
In my Ohio home we added green peppers and substituted low moisture mozzarella for the cheddar to make it Johnny Marzetti, but it was still goulash.
@@peshgirl It always had diced green bell pepper in school. It sometimes had orange cheddar cheese or mozzarella. I make it with mozzarella and garish with Parmesan from the green shaker can.
Bingo! (Mom's from NE)
Just made this Chef John for my family, they absolutely loved it, thanks for this great recipe.
Thank you for this video. I haven't made this "Goulash" in a very long time. This used to be Tuesday night dinner when I was a teen, because it was my turn to cook that night. The only difference was to add an egg and bake as a casserole with cheese on top.
Thanks again for all the videos you do, and remembering childhood favorites. 😄
You are the boss of you’re pasta sauce
They called this American chop suey at my schoolwhen I was a tot in the 60s.
Such a classic school lunch!!! As soon as I saw it, it brought back a lot of good memories. Can’t wait to make it! Thank you for posting!
