This is creamy delicious stuff when made according to the recipe. I have been making this for years. It is high in fat, but it is easy and inexpensive, and it is true, Men do love it! I suggest to everyone that you make it as written. I too wanted to doctor up the tomato sauce, but when you do that you loose the lovely green onion flavour that should be the star in this recipe. I also use real butter, and omit the green peppers. Try it!

Very good. I made a more hearty spaghetti sauce then this recipe called for. (using garlic, herbs and spices, ect) I also added about 1 cup of grated Monterey jack cheese to the filling, and I topped it with grated cheddar. Hearty and good!

I used a 12 oz. bag of egg noodles-for 8 servings-but didn't add any extra sauce or anything. I probably should have. I used one can of tomato sauce and instead of the other can I used spaghetti sauce. The bell pepper and onion was not fully cooked, it should have been cooked with the ground beef. I pretty much followed this recipe as instructed. It was filling, the leftovers were good, but it somewhat lacked in flavor. My husband didn't like it too much, but he's not a fan of anything with noodles in it. It wasn't hard to do, but I don't think I'll be making it again. Also, my 3-year-old ate it and I didn't hear any complaints.

We are not fans of cottage cheese so I changed it to Ricotta cheese and instead of egg noodles I used Penne pasta, that is what I had on hand. I couldn't get beyond the strong cream cheese taste. I had to really DR up the sauce with added spices, but that is because I am spoiled and usually make my own pasta sauce, never use it from a can. But...my husband and two kids ate it up, thus the 4 stars! I actually would make this dish again, only using my homemade pasta sauce and omitting the sour cream and cream cheese and would add some mozzerella into the dish.

I thought this was a very good weeknight meal, with great leftovers. First, I used REAL butter instead of margarine, just a personal choice I guess. And as some other reviewers suggested, I used a jar of my favorite store-bought spaghetti sauce instead of the plain tomato sauce, and used most of the jar. Low fat cream cheese and cottage cheese worked great, and I also covered the top of the casserole with grated sharp cheddar cheese for the last couple of minutes in the oven. Good served with a green salad. Very similar to a lasagna.

This is a great "poor-man's" lasagna. The only item that I found a bit overpowering (eventhough I measured correctly) was the cinnamon. I would try this recipe again only without the cinnamon. Overall, very tasty.

Although this recipe was easy to prepare, the dish did not have much flavor at all. Sorry but I don't think I would make it again. If I were I would use salsa instead of tomato sauce for an extra boost

I lightened up this recipe with lean ground beef, fat free sour cream, reduced fat cream cheese and fat free cottage cheese---it was still very good--very rich. I think next time I will use a little more spice in the meat mixture ie garlic and perhaps use a little less cheese mixture. Overall it was very good and my husband told me I could make this anytime for him--it's true--men do love it!!!! :) Thanks for an easy good recipe!!!! After ligthening it up--it was only 6 weight watcher points for a serving and very filling!

I used ground chicken and Penne pasta because that was all I had. I also substituted the new Campbell's creamy ranchero tomato soup for part of the tomato sauce and left out the sour cream. Might need to season the meat a little next time, some paprika or garlic maybe. Overall, it was good!

Very good. I took the advice of others and used 24 oz of tomato sauce. I also added a few dashes of worcestershire sauce and some Italian seasoning.
