Sadly, I always thought my mom would be around to make the dishes she
knew I loved. I never thought to ask her for the recipes, but I was a
young adult, and still am. Maybe you can help me?

My mom made what she called goulash. To me it was more like a stew.
She would put elbow macaroni in it, V-8 Juice, chopped or whole
tomatoes, I cannot remember, I think celery, and I want to say caraway
seeds, but I could be wrong. She always put lots of hamburger in it,
maybe an onion or two. I just do not remember.

Any help you can give me is appreciated. I miss her cooking, but what
I miss most is how wonderful she was, how she always put her family
before herself, and how much she loved me.

Thanks in advance for your help.
