Ingredients:
1 16 ounce package of gluten free noodles
1 pound hamburger
2 bell peppers
1 onion
4 14.5 ounce cans of diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
4 or more dashes Tabasco sauce
Cook the gluten free rice macaroni noodles al dente (firm but not hard or sticky) in a large stock pot according to the directions. This takes about 20 minutes. Rinse the noodles and set aside.
Dice the onion and peppers while the noodles are cooking.
Brown the hamburger on medium high in the frying pan with the garlic and onion. Add salt if desired. Stir in the peppers when browned. Set aside until the noodles are done.
Rinse out the stock pot that held the noodles. Add the browned hamburger/onion/pepper mix. Add the canned tomatoes and stir until blended.
Add the spices and brown sugar. The tobasco adds flavor while the brown sugar takes the edge off the heat. Go ahead and kick it up if you like it spicy.
Gently add the gluten free noodles and stir. Simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes or more to blend the flavors. This is the type of recipe that gets better the longer it cooks. If you have the time, cover and simmer on low for 1/2 hour. Stir frequently to prevent sticking on the bottom. Add a little water or marinara sauce if desired.
Tips: Gluten free goulash is easy to reheat and can be frozen for up to three months. You can make the gluten free noodles head of time and freeze or store in the fridge until ready to use. Reduce 2 grams of carb per serving by using green peppers instead of colored. Macaroni noodles hold heat - please allow to cool before serving to young children.
