I've been looking for a super easy casserole that is delicious. This is it!!! Only thing I did different is I had to add additional pasta water. More like 1 1/2 cups of pasta water.

After seeing some of the reviews I adjusted the recipe a little. I used traditional red pasta sauce instead of tomato paste (about half of the large jar) and I upped the amount of the seasoning a little. (I did add too much red pepper though lol) all in all my husband and I enjoyed it and will make again

It is tasty and quick and easy to make. I would add extra chilli in the next time for a bit more kick and maybe mushrooms

It was pretty good. However I made twice the amount it said as I don't think it would have been enough.

Like a lot of other reviewers, I thought it was bland. Even after adding twice as much tomato paste, salt, and pepper. The beef and cheese kind of bonded itself together, leaving the pasta dry and flavorless. The onion was undercooked. All in all, I think this would benefit from having some sort of sauce to bind things together

This was a hit in my family. Had to add more salt but was so good. I paired with garlic cheesy knots.

Husband, not a fan (he'sthe picky eater). But everyone else liked it. I actually added a whole cup of pasta water.

Jeff Hawker· last year

This was really good. Leftovers were better. I did (almost) double it and it could have fed an army so be careful there. Very good. Will make again

Next time I will make sure to have garlic bread

We added more seasoning. Maybe doubled if not tripled the seasonings. And I messed it up with cheese! Maybe around 3 to 4 cups of it. And then I also used about a cup and a half of beef broth with the pasta water. Then cooked with noodles and cheese all mixed in for like 8 minutes. It was so yummy. Oh and I used cheddar instead of mozzarella

Limitless Travels· last year

Added mushrooms, fresh basil, dried Italian herb seasoning, and better than bouillon. I left the parsley out until the end. I only topped it with parsley due to the earthy flavor of it.

Made this tonight. Definitely not bland! The red pepper flakes give it a slight kick. Though we did add some more of other seasonings. It was dry though. If I make this again I will probably add a marinara or Alfredo sauce to the dish.

Brian McFarlane· 2 years ago

A little bland. Add some spice and mushrooms might be a nice addition.

Used red onion cuz its all i had but i grated a hunk of fresh parm and definitely added a lot more chili flakes. I think i used too much salt but it wasn't overwhelming. I also put some pickled jalapenos on mine cuz I am addicted to them.

Michelle Miller· 3 years ago

It was okay, just a lityle bland for us. But may try it again and saute the onions then add the ground beef.
