One of my weeknight staples!
HilPoof - June 15, 2007 06:53:24 AM PSTI absolutely LOVE this recipe! It's quick and easy to make, and I get great leftovers. It's just as good out of the microwave the next day as it is out of the pan. Since I live alone and the only other person who eats with me is my boyfriend, this is a great dish to make once and get several meals out of it.
I do play with the recipe a little. I use a LOT more than 1 cup of mozzarella....I try to completely cover the top of the mixture with cheese. I also use specialty spaghetti sauces (my current favorite is the Chunky Garden Combination by Ragu) to add some more flavor. I omit the red peppers and season the beef with a hefty amount of garlic powder while I'm browning it. I also brown the beef with the onions instead of adding the onions after I drain the beef.
If you use the recommended amount of water, the sauce gets somewhat runny. I cut back to about 2 1/2 cups of water, and it might help to add some more spaghetti sauce.2 of 3 found this review helpful.
