Camp Fire Recipe: Skillet Ghoulash
When my children were little, we would have skillet ghoulash before we went out to meet the ghosts and goblins prior to collecting candy. My daughter always believed that it was called ghoulash because it kept the ghost away so she could keep her candy.
Today, this dish is a camp staple. While it tastes like it cost a million bucks, the truth is this dish is very inexpensive to make. To cut the cost even more, a few simple substitutes can be made without losing flavor. As an example, if you do not have ground beef, consider using ground venison, chicken, or turkey. If you do not have egg noodles, utilize elbow macaroni. Finally, while apple cider vinegar is tasty in this dish, if you do not have any simply use white vinegar.
