Goulash is a title that has been highly stretched over the years. My apologies to all authentic Hungarian Goulash lovers out there. It is not my intent to insult a dearly loved cultural cuisine but so many American families do call this goulash – I did my research on this – that I am sticking with it. 🙂

Directions
Boil water in a sauce pan.
Add pasta* and boil till tender according to box directions.

Fry the ground beef in a large non-stick skillet on medium – medium high heat.
Drain the fat when the ground beef is no longer pink.
Add full can (16 oz -ish) of sloppy joe sauce.
Mix through.
Add pasta to skillet and gently mix in.
Heat for 5 minutes on medium.
Dish up into microwavable bowls.
Add approximately 1/2 cup of shredded cheese to the top.**

*Shells, elbow macaroni, spirals or rotini all work well.
**If you prefer your cheese to be very melted, microwave each bowl 30 seconds.
