WOW! I didn’t see that one coming. Why in the world did he send Jennifer home? She and Ben seemed to have a solid connection. She is smart, fun, and based on her exit, very gracious and mature. I don’t understand men sometimes. I admit it.
[Sigh...]
On The Bachelor tonight, Ben took the ladies on a trip to Puerto Rico. Even though it is part of the U.S., it still has its own distinct culture, so we are presenting our culturally-unique, culinary delight for you. I am pleased to introduce Bachelor Chef Otto and his great goulash recipe.
Otto’s Goulash!
Cook Time: 40 min. Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds lean ground beef
- 2 large onions, chopped
- 2 large potatoes, chopped
- 2 large carrots, chopped
- 3 cups water
- 1 (29-ounce) can tomato sauce
- 2 (15-ounce) cans diced tomatoes
- 12 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 3 bay leaves
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 1/3 tablespoons black pepper
- 2 cups dried elbow macaroni
Directions:
In a Dutch oven, saute the ground beef over medium-high heat, until no pink remains. Break up meat while sautéing. Spoon off any grease. Chop the potatoes and carrots and hard boil for 5 minutes then add to the pot. Add the onions to the pot and saute until they are tender about 5 minutes. Add 3 cups water, along with the tomato sauce, tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, bay leaves, soy sauce, pepper, and sea salt. Stir well. Place a lid on the pot and allow this to cook for 20 to 25 minutes.
Add the elbow macaroni, stir well, return the lid to the pot, and simmer for about 20 minutes. Turn off the heat, remove the bay leaves and allow the mixture to sit about 30 minutes more before serving.
About Bachelor Chef Otto:
Otto is Mr. International. He grew up in Holland, lived in South Africa for six years, has visited 40 or 50 countries, and now calls America his home. The thing I like most about Otto is that he always has a smile on his face. He is a realtor and tells me that he has the secret for finding the right type of foreclosure for his clients. He loves being outdoors, dancing, and studying. He has an intimate, love relationship with Christ. He even taught his parrot, Camelot, to say “God loves you.” Speaking of pets, he also has two dogs and two cats: Sir Lancelot, Lady Guinevere, King Arthur, and Sir Kay. If you guessed Bachelor Chef Otto is a gentleman based on the names of his pets, you’d be absolutely correct. He knows how to treat a lady right. He has a zest for life, gives great Dutch kisses (I’ve been told), and is ready to settle down.
He would have never misled Jennifer like Ben did (The Bachelor).
