What's For Dinner: Easy Goulash (Skillet Beef & Macaroni)

This scrumptious one-skillet dish is easy to make, budget-friendly and kid-friendly. It's got lots of favorite ingredients like ground beef, corn, picante sauce, cheese and macaroni...it's a winner.

What You'll Need

1 pound ground beef 
2 stalks celery, diced (about 1 cup) 
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed 
1 can (10 1/2 ounces) Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup or (10 1/2 ounces) Campbell’s® Condensed 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom Soup 
1 cup Pace® Picante Sauce 
1 can (about 8 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained 
4 ounces (about 1 cup) elbow macaroni, cooked and drained 
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese 

How to Make It

  • 1
    Cook the beef, celery and oregano in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the beef is well browned, stirring often to separate meat.  Pour off any fat.
  • 2
    Stir the soup, picante sauce, corn and pasta in the skillet.  Cook and stir until the mixture is hot and bubbling.  Sprinkle with the cheese and cook until the cheese is melted.

Thanks. These recipes could not have come at a better time. I love to cook but am tired of the same old things.

It is great when cooked in a pressure cooker! The flavors are wonderful and it doesn't get dry.

Sounds like it 2:57. I've looked up homemade Hamburger Helper recipes and have made them. I feel made like this it has less chemicals than the boxed version and they do taste much better. I'm going to try this.

One of my favorites in the school lunch line in the 50's and 60's was the goulash. That stuff would stick with you.

I make something like this. Sometimes we eat it as is but other times I put it in a small baking dish, make a corn meal batter, pour all over then bake until batter is done. It's good but then you are getting into not only a 1 skillet meal, but also a mixing bowl and a baking dish meal which equals more dirty dishes!
