This sounds like a good comfort food recipe. There's something about a delicious home cooked meal that satisfies the entire family. When making this, I would use lean ground beef, and omit the olive oil since the meat will be drained after it is cooked. I would also use unsalted tomato sauce. The salt won't be missed because there are other seasonings in this dish.

I am a goulash fiend! My Mum used to make it all the time when I was little and I just can't get enough. If you want to bulk your goulash up and make it a little bit healthier, so can add in chopped carrots and potatoes, or frozen corn and peas. If you have a little bit leftover the next day and you want to stretch it into another meal, we oftern cook up the leftovers in a yorkshire pudding in a cast iron skillet or you can top it with some dumplings. Very budget friendly.

I like to use tomato sauce and elbow macaroni. I add fresh/frozen corn and green beans and top it of with four cheese mix. No left-overs!

I used to make this all the time for my then young kids, they love it, i use elbow macaroni & add it to the mixture at the end. It gives the noodles flavor, I also cook the peppers & onion at same time as meat. Then drain grease

If you pour off the grease after cooking the meat, does it matter if you use olive oil...?

I add a package of Enchilada Mix to my Goulash in lieu of all the spices and no peppers (they give me heartburn). I also use petite diced tomatoes-no chopping needed. I cook elbow macaroni and stir it into the beef mixture and top with cheese . Yummy!

It seems that there's always someone out there, who MUCKS UP a recipe by adding something south-western (Mexican junk) to it. The Enchilada mix didn't give you heartburn? Just thinking about it makes me queasy.
