cook the noodles separate from the actual recipe.

Have you tried cooking the noodles only half way?

 

[daver]

Cook the noodles al dente.. to do that add your noodles to already boiling water.. after about 5 minutes.. pull a noodles and eat it. If there's no crunch it is done..you want to be able to just cut it with the side of your spoon.. no longer. That's when it becomes mushy

Boil them on the side and right before they get soft drain and add it to your meat mixture continue to cook and they will finish cooking with out getting mushy

Fry the noodles first. Put a tablespoon or so of oil in a pan. Add the dry pasta. Saute the pasta until it's starting to brown. Continue as usual. Even after a couple of days, the pasta doesn't get mushy. Sounds crazy, but it works.

I use Knorr's Goulash seasoning packets. Then I add a bit of Ketchup to it. I think it's awesome.

My Husband's Mom's recipe for Goulash was. 1 pound of everything.
1 pound of Ground Beef Browned
1 pound of Bacon Browned save the grease
1 Vidalia Onion
Browned in the Bacon Grease
1 pound or 1 box of Elbow Macaroni cooked.
1 Large Jar of Ragu Spaghetti Sauce.
Boil Macaroni -
Brown everything and drain.
Crumble the Bacon into Macaroni. Make sure everything is warm. And eat. It tastes better the day after.

The trick to the noodles is to not add them to the goulash uncooked. Cook separate then add last half hour or fifteen minutes
