Do you have picky kids that are hard to please? Then bookmark this recipe! Kids enjoy making this as much as eating it. (Grownups love it too!)

Thanks so much for daring me to make this! This dish was enjoyed by everyone in the family, even my 3 yr old (who eats almost nothing). I did make a couple of additions - a can of mushrooms and some minced garlic. I think next time I make this, I'll also add in some pepperoni. I couldn't find plain mozzarella at the grocery store, so I bought a cheddar/mozzarella blend. To accompany this recipe, I served a simple salad and rolls. My whole family thanks you for a great recipe!

I made this the other night in order to clear out the fridge. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was since I was a little sceptical going in. I added some dried basil & oregano & used 1 whole, small onion to the meat layer to give it some extra flavor, used whole wheat spaghetti & added some mushrooms in place of the green pepper. Very family friendly, versatile & easy to prepare.

Very tasty! Easy to make! I used a round casserole dish - worked perfectly. I also used italian-seasoned breadcrumbs and substituted the green peppers with pepperoni! This definately goes into my recipe box!
