Hungarian Goulash

UPDATE: (May 09)We loved this!!! Would definitely double the meat part next time but I wouldn't double the noodles...just add a bit.
I got this from the 'zaar. It's going in the freezer as soon as it cools. I would double this if I made it again(if we like it)...will have to have a large salad or other side to be sure everyone gets full. Oh and I used 1/4 cup butter instead of shortening.
