I really liked this, but I did have to make some modifications because I had no spinach at home. Next time I'm following it to the letter and expect it to be wonderful! I added chopped onion to the bacon and garlic, and I used turkey bacon and whole wheat penne. I also stirred in about a 1/2c of shredded mozz once I'd tossed everything, and will probably do this or add parmesan every time I make it. I had seconds, which I almost never do, and my husband asked me to fix the leftovers for his lunch(added some leftover baked chicken cut up at his request). I will definitely use this recipe again!

I love the sauce! We have cut way back on meat in our house, so I've been trying other things with this, the last time I chopped fine 8oz of mushrooms (one kid doesn't like them) and put them in to bulk up the sauce base--Wonderful! I layered in a mix of sauteed zucchini and yellow squash, which was good, but I used too much. I always put my noodles in hard (and I don't spend the extra for the special noodles) and I have never had a problem, the lasagna comes out nice and firm, because the excess moisture soaks into the noodles. I doubled the ricotta and egg mix because the first time it wasn't enough in my opinion, this time I had more than enough, will probably try to find a happy medium. Also, both times I've made this I put chopped fresh spinach in the ricotta mix, I love it this was and kids don't complain about veggies. I freehanded shredded mozz the second time I made, it worked just as well as the sliced, but I probably did use about 3c, not 2. I would love to try this with the meat, and I may next time I need to take a dish somewhere, but for home this veggie version works well.

Excellent! I added the mushrooms as some others recommended. The steaks were very tender and juicy, even the kid that never eats steak ate a small portion of this and liked it. I did all my dicing and chopping while I had baked potatoes in the oven, cooked these once I had them out and resting. Very good, will keep this in mind for when we have adult company to impress!

These were excellent. I left out the bacon since my family are not fans, and the shells disintegrated on me a little, care needs to be exercised in removing meat once cooked. I would definitely make again, maybe adding a little garlic or substituting some ranch dressing for part of the sour cream.

My husband loved these, and I thought they were better than most we have had as appetizers. I found them a little tedious and time consuming to make, so they are definitely reserved for special occasions!

This makes perfect baked potatoes, just like a restaurant!

I would probably not fix this dish again. I followed the recipe closely and we all found it a little bland. I've never had another piccata recipe so I don't know how this compares. I served it with rice.

I made this in the slow cooker, browning meat and then stirring everything together in the cooker. It was very good, we were having a family gathering and almost everyone had seconds. I omitted green pepper, cuz I can't stand it, and I added a little minced garlic, doubled the recipe and used half ground turkey. I ran the crockpot on high for 3-1/2 hours and held it on warm for another hour. It was excellent and I would make it again, I had several comments that this was way better than the canned stuff!

Tasted okay, but a little blah. Brats didn't hold on to much flavor after cooking so long. Definitely "stew", very thick and filling.

Very good. A little spicier than I personally like, but I like my stuff on the "wimpy" side. Froze and reheated well in individual portions.

Wow, this was excellent. I used the egg wash and olive oil as others suggested, but other than that followed the recipe. There's only three us, so I did wind up with leftovers, and they reheated well.

tasted good, got raves from the family. Used it for thanksgiving and it did not hold well in my opinion(while I finished up with other dishes), got dry and stuck to the pan. Either needs to be served immediately or I need to find a similar recipe that can be held warm longer.

I've been looking for this recipe, saw it years ago in a newspaper column as "Better than Sex Chocolate Cake". This is the same as far as I can remember. It's a great, moist cake that needs no frosting, so I love to take it to dinners or to work (no potential mess).

I get begged by coworkers to bring this to every gathering we have.

My husband wants us to get a larger slow cooker so I can make more of this at a time.
