Commons  American goulash  American goulash, similar to a
hotdish, is a dish baked as a casserole in an oven, and has many
variants.  It is usually referred to in the Midwestern United
States as simply "goulash". As a descendant, of sorts, of
Hungarian goulash, the only real connection seems to be the
name, and the usual inclusion of beef and paprika.[1]  American
goulash, mentioned in cookbooks since at least 1914, exists in a
number of variant recipes.[1][2] Originally a dish of seasoned
beef,[2] core ingredients of American goulash now usually
include various kinds of pasta, cubed steak, and tomatoes in
some form, whether canned whole, as tomato sauce
