I gave this recipe 3 stars. My family liked this casserole. I thought this was bland but I loved the idea of it and how easy it was. When I made this casserole I only had elbows. I used mild italian sausage links which I removed the casing. I added 4 or 5 links as I think it needed more than 1/2 pound. I was shy 2oz on my sauce and I used Ragu garden combo. and traditional. I goofed and topped my pasta before baking with the cheese and I topped the casserole with 4 handfuls of cheese. I covered this and baked. Overall this was so easy. The next time I make this I plan to try adding some ground beef along with the sausage and to add a chopped onion, plus to season it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Overall I'll make this again! Christine (internetnut)
