Expert Tips

Get into a party theme by looking for some of those new, fun holiday pasta shapes, such as Halloween pumpkins or Christmas trees, to use instead of the rotini.

Two cups of broccoli, chopped green bell pepper or frozen cut green beans could be used in place of the zucchini.

What makes this recipe is the Sloppy Joe Sauce and the Zucchini in my opinion. I had never cooked with Zucchini when I first tried this recipe but it definitely adds that extra flavor and texture it would be missing otherwise. The Sloppy Joe Sauce gives this recipe a little kick from your average boring ol' tomato sauce goulash. The rotini noodles are more fun than boring macaroni (I get the tri-colored ones to add some color). I've tried adding other vegetables but it just seems to throw the taste off. We have this every Halloween and we'll try to sneak it in several times during the year too. Everyone loves it as a nice change to regular goulash and it's a super easy recipe to throw together on a cool Fall night. Yum!
