I was so ready for this recipe to be so so, but it was great! I used ground turkey instead of beef and I followed others' suggestions to double all the spices. I added extra water as needed. Also threw in some diced red bell peppers to use them up. Very quick and easy, and a great meal.

Really good and easy. Not quite as good as the real thing but close and SO MUCH easier. Thought the taste was great. Made exactly as instructed except used large curd cottage cheese instead of small curd and whole wheat penne pasta instead of bowtie. We will definitely be having this dish again and again. Thanks.

Was really good. I used ricotta cheese instead of the cottage cheese. I also sprinkled grated mozzarella cheese on top after serving. I did doctor it with extra spices and will probably use Italian sausage next time. But this recipe has definitely been added to the rotation. So much easier than regular lasagna.

i added basil, upped the oregano, used low fat cottage cheese, spicy ital sausage instead of beef, and mixed in some fresh spinach right before the cottage cheese. i really liked that there were hardly any dishes to wash and it was quick. i served it w/ a salad out of a bag and frozen garlic bread for an easy i dont feel like cooking dinner. this is a great recipe to play around w/ and adjust to your liking.

Very good. I made this according to directions. But I did have to add more water during the cooking. We topped ours with mozzarella cheese on the plate. We are cheezy like that. The whole family enjoyed. Thanks for a great and quick recipe.

I think this recipe would be good as-is, but I made a few modifications that turned out pretty good. First, I used italian sausage in place of the ground beef. We were out of tomato paste, so I used 1/4 cup of ketchup and omitted the salt. Also, I added 1 tsp. of basil and an extra 1/4 cup of water to the recipe because it ran out of water and was sticking. Definately a keeper! Reminds me of a GOOD version of Hamburger Helper because there's no chemical after taste.

Very good and an easy alternative to lasagna. I use broken up lasagna noodles so it looks more like lasagne. **Also, it needed a little more water since it dried up at the end, so I'd add 1/2 cup more.

Easy, tasty, and cheap one-skillet meal. I doubled the garlic and all the seasonings, and added some dried basil as well. Seemed to be a bit bland without doing that. You could use the cans of tomatoes and tomato paste that are already seasoned with garlic, to give it more flavor. I also upped the nutrition by adding chopped bell peppers and zucchini. There are probably other vegetables that would work as well. The vegetables blend right in taste-wise, and give it more variety in texture. Great way to sneak vegetables into your kids' food!

This was a great fast dinner. I Added more seasoning as if I was cooking lasagna as well as spinach. I also use penne pasta, a cup more of water and ricotta cheese in place of cottage cheese. It was great for a quick dinner!
