We liked this very much. I used whole wheat rotini and fat-free cream cheese and sour cream, and only a handful of cheddar on top. I didn't read the directions (oops!), so I sauted the onion and bell pepper with the ground beef instead of mixing them with the sour cream & cream cheese, but it came out just fine anyway. I thought the end result tasted a lot like lasagna, but much healthier! Next time I might try adding some spinach leaves. Thanks for posting!

I am amazed, truly amazed. Not only did I love this but my casserole haters loved it as well. Next time I make it (and I will make it again) I plan on doubling the sour cream/cream cheese mixture. I didn't have any green peppers so used diced green chilis and it was still wonderful. Thank you for posting this! Can't wait to try the little bit that is leftover for breakfast. Yum!

This was really good! I had my doubts about it as I was making it. I thought Cream cheese and tomato sauce? But the flavor of the cheese mixture and tomato sauce worked very well. I used 2 cloves of garlic and the tops of the onion as well. As this was baking the sauce colored the noodle layer which was fun to see as you dished this out. I will be making this again.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I'm originally from Atlanta, GA, but I now live in Brooklyn, NY with my husband, cat, and dog. I'm a film and video editor, but cooking is my main hobby - if you can call something you do multiple times a day a hobby. <br />I enjoy all types of food, from molecular gastronomy to 70's suburban Mom type stuff. While I like to make recipes from cookbooks by true chefs, I don't turn my nose up at Campbell's Cream of Mushroom - I'm not a food snob. <br /> I love foods from all nations/cultures, and I am fortunate enough to live in NYC so I can go to restaurants which serve food from pretty much anywhere on the globe. Because of this most of my recipes tend to be in the Western European/American food tradition - I find it easier to pay the experts for more complicated delicacies such as Dosai, Pho & Injera. I really enjoy having so many great food resources available to me here in NYC. One of my favorite stores is Kalustyan's http://www.kalustyans.com/ <br />they have every spice, bean, & grain in the world. If there's something you can't find, look on their website. I bet they'll have it and they can ship it to you! <br />Many of my recipes are Southern, because that's the food I grew up on. I hope the recipes I have posted here will be useful to folks out in the 'zaar universe! <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg alt= /></p>
