This was good and easy to make. We thought it could have used some more seasonings. It was a quick, weeknight meal that was easy to make. I also like that it is made with ingredients I normally have on hand.

I made a few changes: used 1 lb of beef and a mix of Mexican cheeses instead of cheddar, and added a bunch of extra flavorings: a squirt of ketchup and Worcestershire, garlic powder, seasoned and garlic salt, red and black pepper and Trader Joe's Pasta Seasonings. The recipe came out great--homestyle and delicious!

Very easy and quick dinner. A definite kid-pleaser. I thought it needed a little more flavor, so I added some garlic, thyme and oregano. I also mixed half of the cheese right in and melted half on top as directed. Cheesey, yummy goodness! I'll make this again. Thanx for posting.
