This makes a TON! This was really good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written other then I didn't use the oil and used minced dried onions. I also forgot to add the salt and but we didn't notice. I also used a bit more sauce as my cans were 13 ounce cans. I also used a combination of mozzarello and cheddar cheese. This was so good and we will have lots of leftovers for the weekend. My boys ate this up! YUM!

Well I must say my whole family loved this! I baked it at 350 for 30 minutes and the cheese turned littly browned and crusty. True comfort food! Thanks Kat

This is a hearty dish that is easy to prepare and is sure to please everyone. As suggested, I served it with a green garden salad. A great meal, Kat Rahal, thanks for sharing this.

Have been making this for over 25 yrs. A family favorite. Easy and so good! A neighbor asks me to make this for her a couple times a year. I make a double batch and she freezes it in single portions. So guess it freezes well.
