years ago I got bored with a favorite family dish of macaroni, hamb, onions and canned tomatoes and came up with a similar dish with the tomato soup. this dish is open to almost any change. add any veggies, spices or whatever. you can do spicy or Italian. this recipe is the base for you to be creative and have a great meal in a short time. try it with cooked macaroni mixed in at the begining

We did not care for the sweetness the tomato soup gave it. I also added a bit of cornstarch to thicken it up a bit. It makes a lot and was better the second day but I will probably not make again.

They say the way to a man's heart is via their stomach. So true! I was in love with my wife as a person before, during and after this recipe she made exclusively for my grouchy stomach. After the meal, I also fell in love with her as a chef all over again. ;-DP.S. I did end up adding a couple of spicy spices to the dish. I prefer my food with lots of heat.Thank you for sharing this recipe! :)

I tried this last night. The cinnamon gives it such a unique flavor. Will definitely make again.

I don't get why people get so upset about what recipe donors call their recipes. It does not matter if it called a goulash or whatever,it is up to them what they want to call it. I just think it is a great recipe no matter what it is called.

This is quick to put together and really flavorful. We thought the cinnamon added a nice touch. Served it over rice and everyone enjoyed it.

I thought this was pretty good,my family enjoyed it. I love one pot meals. I was reading other reviews and one said it shouldn't be called hungarian goulash,it's not, it's called stovetop goulash.

Good recipe, quick and easy. In the future, will omit cinnamon and use 1 can of soup and 1 can of tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes.

I made this for dinner tonight. I ran out of tomato soup so I had to substitute with one 8 oz can tomato sauce and 1 can of tomato paste and a tb of brown sugar. It was okay we placed it over egg noodles but it would be good on a bun.
