Excellent!!!! This is one of my favorite's yet! I prepared a box Kraft Mac & Cheese and used in place of the plain pasta & sprinkled some chedder cheese on top as well. I also added a bit of minced garlic to the beef mixture. My bf & I ate almost the whole thing between the 2 of us- with 2 pieces of garlic bread each! A true keeper on our regular meal plan from now on. Yum, yum, yum!! Thank you for a great, easy, very tasty meal!!!

This was good. My husband, who dosen't care for macaroni really enjoyed it. The flavor was different and it seemed like there was something missing but can't quite figure out what. I did add a can of mushrooms. Maybe next time I'll try the worcestershire instead of the steak sauce and maybe a bit of sour cream??

This was very good! I did use more then 1 cup of cheese(cheddar) because I added some in the casserole as well. Extra veggies like mushrooms would taste great in this casserole.

This was very good. As a person living with diabetes, I made this a little healthier by using ground turkey, olive oil instead of shortening, whole wheat pasta instead of enriched and a light cheese.
