My family thought this recipe was wonderful. We'll definitely have it, again & again. I used fat-free sour cream, low fat mozzarella and ground sirloin. I was concerned that the outcome would be bland because tomato sauce, spinach and sour cream don't have much taste. As a result, I flavored the hamburger with Accent, garlic salt and onion powder as it browned. That's the only change that I made. I served it with salad and garlic bread. Thanks, KDB for a great recipe!

I thought this was just okay. Maybe it's just my tastes.

This recipe was easy and very tasty! I added italian seasoning and garlic salt in place of the thyme. I also used two cups of cheese. I thought that the recommended 3.5 cups of noodles was too much though. I will definitely make this again.

A delicious recepie! It really does disguise the spinach flavor. It's very easy to throw together at the last minute, and the casserole could even be prepared in advance, then thrown in the over for 20 minutes more. I browned the meat with salt, pepper, and garlic, then added just the sour cream and sauce. I used a full jar of Ragu sauce, and it wasn't too much, at least for our tastes. A delicious and very customizable meal - Thanks!

I thought this was a great & easy recipe (my husband even approved). I did make some minor adjustments. I added italian seasoning instead of the tyme along with salt & pepper. I also added some crumbled feta cheese along with the mozzarella which gave it a great flavor. Finally, I cooked it the entire time with tin foil on top to prevent it from drying out. The only thing I would change would be to add at least 1/2 can more of tomato sauce to give you a little something to dip your garlic bread in!

this was average. Needs a few special touches to spice it up a little.

To make it more "Italian" I subsituted Italian sausage and seasoning for the hamburger and thyme. Came out really good!

I really liked this recipe. I chose it because I wanted to get rid of some stuff in the fridge. I ended up using spaghetti sauce instead of tomato sauce, quesadilla cheese and cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella, and I even used canned spinach (well drained)instead of frozen because that is what I had. I used more than a cup of cheese because I love cheese. It ended up being a real comfort food, not fancy but warm and cheesy. I really liked it and my fiance did also.
