  1. This recipe is so simple but the taste is unbelievable. So yummy. Even if it's jar pasta sauce. I used a 4 cheese pasta sauce. I used penne pasta. I wasn't too sure about the sour cream and cheese mixed together. But I did it and was surprised by the taste. It was really good. Thanks Pink :) Made for 123 hit wonders
     
  2. So easy to make, and delicious! I did add a bit of garlic, (can't help myself), and used some mozzarella and cheddar mixed. Also, I increased the amount of the meat to satisfy a teenage boy! I didn't add salt while cooking the pasta, so I found I needed to add it to the finished dish in the skillet. Great quick and easy recipe....and you are right....leftovers are great! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
     
  3. Pretty good and quick to fix. Made at the last minute for an unplanned meal. Thanks for the recipe!
     
  4. Such a simple recipe with simple ingredients but it really made a big difference! I added 5 cheese garlic Texas toast with sauce spooned over the top to complete the meal and it was fabulous all together!
     
  5. Delicious! I made this dish a couple times, the first time I made it almost exactly the way it says to, except I used Rotini Primavera (the colorful pasta) because the dish in the picture here just looked so....bland, so I thought I'd make it a little more colorful. Also I was only able to use 1 lb of ground beef as that was all I had but it turned out great. <br/><br/>2nd time I made this, last night, I did something a bit different. I still used Rotini Primavera as my pasta of choice, but I was unfortunately out of shredded cheddar cheese, and only had a bag of Shredded Mozzarella. I used Ragu's Roasted Garlic Parmesan sauce instead of spaghetti sauce. It was only a 12 oz jar so I added the 3/4 cup of water and also shook the jar remnants with a little more water in the jar to add to it. I ended up using 2 lbs of ground beef, and the whole bag of mozzarella (about 2 cups worth) and probably almost double the amount of sour cream needed. <br/>It turned out even better than the first time I made it. It was so cheesy and delicious. <br/><br/>Overall, easy, delicious dish that is easy to add your own personal touch to.
