EASY SKINNY SOUTHWESTERN GOULASH


This is a Weight Watchers Recipe I got back when I used to be a member.  I know some of you are probably thinking it will be bland but it really isn't.  It is actually quite good.  For the macaroni, you can use whole wheat if you desire. I left out the cilantro because my husband doesn't like it.

EASY SKINNY SOUTHWESTERN GOULASHServes: 6

INGREDIENTS

1 cup uncooked elbow macaroni (I used whole wheat)
1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
cup frozen corn (I used 1 cup)
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
½ teaspoon ground cumin (I used 1 teaspoon)
½ teaspoon pepper
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup minced fresh cilantro
INSTRUCTIONS
Cook macaroni according to package directions.
While the water is boiling and pasta is cooking, prepare the ground beef and vegetables. In a large skillet set over medium heat, cook the beef and onion, stirring and breaking up the meat into small crumbles, until meat is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, corn, tomato sauce, chilies, cumin, pepper and salt. Bring to a boil then lower the heat to a gentle simmer and continue to cook, uncovered, for 4-56minutes to allow flavors to blend.
Drain macaroni and add to the meat/vegetable mixture. Stir in the cilantro and heat through. Taste and adjust the seasonings, adding more salt, pepper, cumin, etc. to taste.
