Not enough seasonings for our taste....
gothic_gourmet - July 2, 2007 02:34:13 PM PSTThe basic recipe is a simple and tasty combo, but my family likes alot of herbs in our food, especially Italian. I dressed this dish up with fresh thyme, oregano, parsley, basil, roasted garlic and crushed black pepper and I also added some finely shredded romano and mozzarella cheese. I think I would have liked it even better if I had some tomato paste or just a touch of sauce to add more depth of flavor.
It is a good dish, so if you aren't keen on spices or like me, don't mind adding a little to your taste it's definitely worth trying and is a perfect easy dish for teen cooks.11 of 12 found this review helpful.

Very Good
beautifultigeress - December 5, 2007 01:31:34 PM PSTI thought this dish was very good. I took the advice of the reviewer above and added the extra seasonings which I think helped the dish out alot. I also seasoned the beef with garlic salt and seasoned salt while I was browning it. My husband is very picky and he even liked it.

Kids Loved It
hoserreel - January 14, 2008 04:30:50 PM PSTI've got 2 boys who aren't too picky. But I was worried there may be too many tomatoes...no worries... they cooked down nicely right into the pasta and broth. So, this is 3 reviews in one!!! We all loved it. It's like the helper box stuff, kicked up several notches. Both boys cleaned their plates!!!

Sure pleaser
amjohn77 - April 16, 2008 09:26:13 AM PSTLove the simplicity - hardly more trouble than "Food Helper" but greatly improved by using fresh ingredients. I also use more spices but plain tomatoes (we like basil, thyme and garlic). I think a better parmesan cheese adds greatly to the dish. We have made this repeatedly and it is always a sure bet with our baby granddaughter, as well as easy to bring as leftovers for a tasty lunch at work.
