This is now my go to for meat sauce. The wine is what makes it! I always add mushrooms to at least a third of the final sauce as I am the only one who likes them....a guarantee that I will get some

Delicious! I honestly didn't think this was going to be very good, there's not much to the ingredients but I knew DH would like it. Boy was I wrong! This dish has an amazing depth of flavor we all loved. What is better than a dish that is easy, inexpensive, and absolutely delicious? I will most definitely be making this regularly. Thanks for sharing!

Great recipe - the kids loved it as it didn't have green peppers or other veggies in it. I liked the flavors of it.

Goulash is comfort food. This version adds depth to a childhood favorite and I loved the addition of red wine & beef broth. I did add a chopped green pepper & sliced mushrooms and didn't simmer the two hours. Still great! Thank you for sharing the recipe!

I cooked this recipe exactly as written, except I halved it and then added additional red wine! Very yummy comfort food! Thanks for a great everyday meal! Made for PAC Spring 2010.
