Gift -in-a-jar Goulash Mix

 This is pretty good. I think it could use a little tweaking and it would be even better. Like maybe more sugar it calls for 1 tsp maybe use 2, sugar makes tomato based food taste a little better. Maybe a few more spices, garlic, and basil. Maybe even sub a jar of spaghetti sauce for 2 cans of tomatoes. But it is worth trying, then make it your own by what you decide would be yummy.

11/2 tsp chili powder
