Hella Good Hungarian Goulash Soup Recipe Is What to Make This Weekend

This Hungarian goulash soup recipe is just as hearty and delicious as Hungarian goulash and Hungarian mushroom soup, so you're in for a treat! With rutabaga, carrots, potatoes, sweet red pepper and tender cubes of stew meat, this easy soup recipe is what you need on a cold night.

While this goulash soup simmers on the stove, make some slow-cooker bread or three-ingredient beer bread. Yum! What a meal that would be!
