When I think of Fall, I think of comfort food. How about you?! I am often reminded of my gramma’s kitchen and all the wonderful things she made with love. I loved the food that came out of her kitchen. The many great memories – from the wonderful smells of the food, to watching the way my gramma cooked without measuring, to tasting dishes that were always seasoned to perfection … and many times, getting chased out of the kitchen because it became our playground while she was cooking! 😉 I can only hope that one of these days, my own children and grandchildren will look at me and my kitchen with those same fond memories. Do you have a favorite childhood food? One of my favorites would definitely be goulash!
Although I’m sure this is different from Gramma’s version, it’s still so comforting and delicious! My family really enjoys this One Pot Goulash – and I love that it’s an easy, one pot meal! That means less dishes to clean later. What cook doesn’t love that? Plus, this recipe makes a lot! It’ll almost feed an army of hungry people!
We usually enjoy this dish with a side salad and garlic bread! I hope your family enjoys this One Pot Goulash as much as mine!

Oh, and one more thing before we get to the recipe … this One Pot Goulash makes an awesome Halloween dinner! Plus, it’s kinda fun to call it “ghoul-ash” … I’m just saying.

Looks good, especially the pretty new pictures 🙂
My mother made this ALL the time! And so did HER mother! I'm 68 years old, so you see, we have been enjoying this recipe for many years…but we called it Salamagundi Stew!
Wow!! Thank you so much for stopping by, Linda! I have never heard of Salamagundi Stew – but this dish is delicious no matter what it's called! 🙂 Have a great week!
I saw this on Facebook today, it looks delicious!!! =)
I grew up on Goulash and love it!
Thanks for linking to Saturday Dishes. Hope you can come back next week. We are featuring ice cream.
Wishes for tasty dishes,

This looks so good and love how you can throw it in all together! I am definitely going to make this soon. I will post it and link back to you. I wish my husband and daughter liked mushrooms but only my son and I will eat them, so I'll have to skip them. Let you know how it turns out! Happy New Year!
Warmest Wishes,
Annamaria
I forgot about goulash! My mom used to make it when I was growing up!
Thank you for linking, Jamie. Growing up, I liked goulash too. But I didn't like the name, so my mom had to call it something else. Ha!
Love a one pot meal. I hate doing dishes. Thanks for sharing with Thursdays Treasures
