This is really good! I used olive oil instead - and used 2 T. I also seasoned the chicken with lawry's season salt and a little garlic powder. I cooked the rice in chicken broth. This is going in my collection of recipes!

This was a good recipe. I followed it exactly except for - I used 32 oz. ricotta...mixed it with 2 eggs and added some Italian seasoning. Very good! I did not do the layering and it was great.

This was a great recipe. My husband actually liked it! The only things I did differently were: I added 3 cloves of garlic to the ground beef and seasoned it with Tony Cacheries(?), instead of mixed veggies, I cut and steamed fresh carrots and added them to the beef mixture...and lastly, I made the mashed potatoes with milk and butter. I thought there were plenty of mashed potatoes for the dish...I might have prefered more ground beef! I will definitly make this again.

Excellent!!!! Even my husband loved this! I followed the directions exactly! It doesn't need any modifications!

this is fabulous! My whole family LOVED is and asked for the recipe!!! I modified it per the "most helpful" review - without the pineapple. A few of them even said it was the best carrot cake they have ever had!! Success!!!

This is excellent!!! I did everything exactly as the recipe states, except I replaced the beef with ground turkey, and replaced the cottage cheese with a ricotta mixture (ricotta, egg, basil and parm.) Fantastic!!!!!

This is very good!!! I added some carrots to the top too. Yummy! My kids love it too

This was good. I did add 1 T. honey to water to proof yeast.

very good!

Excellent! I just used chopped carrots instead of baby ones.

excellent!

This sauce was too spicey and greasy. My kids wouldn't eat it. It does have potential...maybe decrease the oil...omit the cayanne....????

This is a good recipe that I will make again and perfect. I only gave it 4 stars because I think that it alone is not 5 star...it's good with some modifications. Last night I followed the recommendations of others and used worsteshire sauce and brown gravy mix. I also upped the ketchup to 2 T. My own personal modifications were, when I made the mashed potatoes, I used 5 large russets...and when I mashed them, I added 1/2 cup milk and 1/4 cup butter. I did not add the onions, but did add the cheese. They turned out GREAT. With the carrots, I did boil them for the time suggested, but I did not mash them. I will make this again...and my picky husband actually liked this. He hates casseroles of all kinds. Next time I make it though, I will NOT add the worsteshire sauce and maybe not even the ketchup. I did NOT like the sweet flavor that those two ingredients gave the beef. Next time, for the beef, I will just sautee garlic and onions in butter, like before, then when the beef is browned, add the flour...but will try only using the brown gravy mix with water...I also had to add more water to the gravy mix, so next time I will go with 1.5 cups and increase it to 2 if needed. This is a good recipe with the modifications made.

I did not add the mushrooms, and I did just diced tomatoes, not green chilles. Turned out good

my kids liked them!

Excellent recipe! I don't know how many times I've made this one...lots. I'm about to make it again this morning. My picky boys LOVE it. I even make it with whole wheat bread and it's wonderful! Yummmm!! I add extra cinnamon like one of the posters said.

good recipe

I liked this, it is dense. i give it 5 stars, but my husband and sons didn't like it. I was the only one to eat it. I enjoyed it though!

Excellent! i did what others did and used only whole wheat flour - I used 3-1/4 c. It turned out wonderful. I meant to add some other spices, but forgot - it still was fabulous. I made 1 thick crust pizza...baked the crust alone for 5 min at 500 degrees, then added the sauce and toppings and cooked for almost 15 min. at 425 degrees. My husband who usually doesn't like my cooking - and doesn't like pizza loved it. So did my boys (5 & 2yrs) This was a big hit! Will make again many times. I made it with a 1/2 a jar of alfredo sauce for the sauce and topped with chicken, onions and garlic sauteed in olive oil. Topped with part skim mozzarella. EXCELLENT!!!!!!

Good recipe - making it again tonight with chili!
