Halloween "Ghoulash"
We have a delicious recipe for Chicken Goulash, "Gypsy Style" from our days as young culinarians at Schoolcraft College. Earlier this week, my best friend, who is a chef at another specialty market, made me laugh when she told me she made goulash at work and kept saying "GHOULash..." in her cheesiest, spooky voice on Friday afternoon.
Hense, I'm sharing the recipe with you, inspired by Reva Bell Constantine, the offical lover of all-things-Halloween. As we speak, Reva is hosting an excellent Halloween party, that I may or may not make it to later on tonight!
Tomorrow will be busy for those trying to get the little ones ready for trick-or-treating, putting things togther for parties, and other various preparations. The great thing about this recipe is that it's easy to make (you could do it in the crock pot if you wanted to), and, most importantly, it's delicious!
Served with mashed potatoes, it's the perfect fall meal, which everyone can enjoy!
