This was very good. I made this in two 8x8 pans (one to freeze for later, one to bake now) and both pans were very full; I was worried about it running over in the oven but it wasn't a problem. I skipped the butter and left out 4 oz of the jack cheese (seemed to have enough already.) Also used whole wheat noodles & low-fat cottage cheese. Next time I may add a dash of red pepper flakes to the cheese filling but it was good as-is (though a little salty.) Thanks for the recipe! -October 28, 2006. Update: I found this to be much tastier after reheating for lunch today. The saltiness I noticed before (from the parm. I guess) has dissipated which has helped take this from a 4 star to a 5 in my book. Thanks again!

I wandered onto Recipezaar less than a year ago, looking for a lentil soup recipe. I'm pretty sure I haven't left the computer since then...I've been completely sucked in by this site! Of course, I do take the occasional break to actually cook the recipes I find.
When I'm not at my computer or in the kitchen, I'm working toward my PhD in clinical psychology from Kent State. I also work as a therapist at the campus clinic, teach a class (Social Psychology this semester), and work as a research assistant. I'm a little bit busy. I do usually find time every day to cook something for myself with the help of this site, and to exercise (to counteract the effects of the great recipes I find here).
I don't have much time in my life for hobbies at the moment (sigh), but I seem to recall that I used to like reading, going to see musical performances, and watching movies. I still do my best to travel as much as possible. My sister, Kate, my boyfriend, Jake, and my friend, Kris, are my favorite travel partners. Kate and I go on an "eatacation" every year.
