My grandmother would make goulash quite frequently while I was growing up. It is one of those dishes that I like to make when my food budget is tight. Inexpensive meals are the key to stretching my food budget. Using ground beef always saves us. Our Slow Cooker Meatloaf is normally my go to recipe when I have ground beef because I know everyone loves it.  Last month I made this recipe and everyone asked for it again this week. PERFECT!
