I think this recipe is great and my family loved it. I gave it four star because I think that it was slightly dry but other than that it was great and easy to make

I'm always looking for new recipes for ground beef, but being from the south find most recipes I come across online to be far too bland. This recipe was absolutely delicious and my family destroyed it! I made a few changes such as adding cayenne pepper, used a large onion rather than a small one, 22oz of tomato sauce instead of 16, pressed 4 cloves of garlic into the sauce, and used Gemelli pasta rather than egg noodles. I must admit this was the most disgusting looking sauce I've ever cooked, but it was slap ya mamma good!

You pretty much have all these ingredients on hand...simple and easy, and you can tweak it anyway you like. Personally I would cut back on the cream cheese to maybe only one or one and half tablespoons and use store bought red sauce. Satisfying without being a budget breaker.

I read one of the reviews for this where it was only given 2 stars. How could anything with these ingredients be...not that good?" I HAD to try it! I am so happy I did. I followed the recipe exactly. My family loved it and I probably should have doubled the recipe. Quick, simple and tasty :)

An okay recipe, pretty good but nothing special. Very creamy and rich, a nice addition to the dinner rotation on occasion.

It WAS quick and easy to make, but didn't taste good. If you're the type of person who just loves to sit down and eat a bowl of sour cream, then this is the recipe for you! Well, not really--my 2 year old loves sour cream and would eat it with a spoon if we let her, and she didn't like this at all either. I followed the recipe exactly, and it tasted like warm cream cheese and sour cream with noodles and beef in it. The fat in this swallowed up all the other flavors of garlic, onion and tomato. I am Slovak and my husband is half Polish, so usually anything with these ingredients sour cream is right up our alley, but not this one! I feel a heart attack coming on.

This was very good. I salted the beef while it was browning and also added some smoked paprika. I used a really nice aged extra charp white cheddar. My boyfriend made fun of me saying that I was making hamburger helper... You should have seen how fast he ate it!

This was really good. My husband raved and gave this one 5 stars. I used dried minced onion and added some salt as it cooked. I used 1 can of plain tomato sauce and 1 can of mexican tomato sauce. I subbed a bunch of assorted macaroni and pasta I had for the egg noodles. I topped this with some mexican blend cheese and whatever cheddar blend I had left. I didn't layer this jsut mixed it all together and topped with the cheese.

This is an awesome and quick dish! I did make a couple of changes. I did not have any sourcream. All I had was reduced fat cream cheese. I used up the entire block of RF cream cheese instead. Also, I added a packet of dry taco seasoning to the sauce. The last change I made was to replace cheddar cheese with taco blend cheese. Both my sons who are super picky eaters loved it!

We really liked this recipe. My only change was to make it a one dish meal cooked on the stove top. I followed the recipe as stated, but after adding and blending in the sour cream and cream cheese, I added about 3-4 cups of water, brought it to a simmer and then added the noodles. Topped with cheese, it made a perfect and very simple one skillet weeknight supper!
