  1. *OH my GOODNESS* this was as good as you could ever imagine. I followed this pretty close to the original, the only change I made was to make the pasta separately, because quite frankly that is how the day was going. I put the noodles separately because I was running back and forth on the farm, and just pre-boiled them. On the farm today mid-late March we were "calving" (had 6 today!) so I threw the noodles in to hot water and left it on the stove for about 1/2 hour before I could get back. Normally, I would follow this recipe step by step but this way all was ready when we gathered around the table after running all over the farm. I love the use of cream cheese here too. In fact, I loved everything about this easy to put together, fall down on the couch with a fork in hand, and devouring this to the bottom of the dish. Managed to grab a quick photo, but everyone was so hungry this was it. Thank you so much, kittycatmom! A perfect meal for the farm and everyone in fact! Made for *Everyday is a Holiday* March 2009
     
  2. Very easy and tasty! I had homemade spaghetti sauce in the freezer with beef already in it, so I just thawed that and used it place of the sauce and beef! Thank you, great quick meal! Didn't have to spend hours!
     
  3. This was so easy and so good. This kittycat went straight to my easy pesy recipes. We used frozen spinach and thought it was a delightful dish. Made for 12 hits. oh yum
