To make a classic American Goulash, gather the following ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (you can also use ground turkey for a lighter version)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
- 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes (with or without herbs)

- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning (or a mix of dried basil, oregano, and thyme)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
