    Overall very easy and fast weeknight supper! Next time I would add some mushrooms, olives, onions, etc. to give it more variety and flavor. - 3/20/11

    Oh my word, this was just YUM!! Used turkey pepperoni, ground turkey, whole wheat rotini with Prego meat spaghetti sauce. Recipie divides nicely into 6 portions. 8 is a bit small without some kind of side dish. - 4/15/09

    I double the recipe and put into two 9x13 pans and instead of baking, I freeze them for later. To serve: I take out of the freezer the night before to thaw in the refridgerator. Then bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until heated through! - 7/29/09

    Very easy to make! Made some substitutions with ingredients that I typically use (ground turkey, fat free cheese, turkey pepperoni, etc.) and got it down to about 205 calories / 4.5 fat per serving (12 servings in total). It was delicious, thank you for the wonderful idea! - 8/24/10

    This was quite tasty, but not so healthy. I think that there are number of ways to slim it down. - 3/31/09

    You can certainly change the ingredients to suit your diet. This is the way I make it at home, so that is how it's calculated.

    My kids actually ate it! I used a can of italian tomatos instead of the spaghetti sauce. I only had 12oz of spiral noodles so I added 4 oz Orzo pasta, it was really good. I like the idea of adding more toppings to it so next time I will try that. - 3/8/13

    My family really enjoyed it. We will be making it again. I added some pizza seasoning to the beef for some extra flavor (I didn't rinse it in hot water) and will add some more next time around. - 2/9/13

    I left out the onion and used turkey burger and turkey pepperoni to make it a few less calories. It turned out great. I will definately make this again. - 8/21/12

    My girls are just too picky so even this, they pick something out! :) I thought it was okay, I couldn't put my finger on it but something was missing in the flavor. It's good for those quick " I really don't want to cook, but hubby is asking on a Friday night" dishes. - 8/11/12

    I made it with turkey pepperoni and it was "okay"....too bland for our family. I would make it next time with green peppers, mushrooms, more onion and more spices. - 3/23/12

    This did taste like pizza without crust a little, but my husband and I didnt like it. Very bland and we ended up throwing out the leftovers which we never do. - 2/26/12

    This is my second time making this. To bring down the calorie count for me, I put some of the dish in a 8x8 baking dish and the rest in a 9x13 dish. The 8x8 dish is mine as it only has a small portion of the ingredients: 1 cup cheese, 30g pepperoni, 4-8 ozs of meat and only some of the pasta. - 1/28/12

    This was really tasty, but not particularly healthy. I won't make it again without some changes to improve the nutritional value. - 1/26/12

    Good recipe. I have one similar to this where the pasta is mixed with cheddar cheese and egg and is cooked first as the base for the sauce and toppings. It is the "crust." I also add green peppers and mushrooms to the top of this "pizza." - 10/8/11

    Absolutely love this recipe! Have made it twice and everyone in the family loves it! Be sure to use good quality ingredients for best taste (avoid kroger brand - gets too greasy and bland after cooked) - 10/6/11
