     This was easy and yummy - one that I will make again for sure. I used regular tomatoes, but that was the only change from the original recipe. Very Good. - 10/9/09

     Oh my goodness that was yummy! I used whole wheat pasta and fresh spinach instead of frozen. I also used the Italian Herb ground turkey breast instead of adding italian seasoning. The only ingredient I excluded was the gree chilies... My mom's allergic. It turned out fantastic! - 6/26/09

     This is AWESOME!! I used whole wheat penne pasta and cut up pieces of turkey from one that I roasted. It was a tad spicy, my husband and I liked it, but the kids complained about it. Next time I will cut up the spinach first and use plain diced tomatoes. - 2/2/09

     This was good my husband really loved it, I did it alittle different though, instead of ground turkey I took the casing off of the hot turkey sausge links and used that. I also added more spinach , I also used organic whole tomatoes and smushed em for the juice.. it was go good thanks for the recipe - 11/9/08

     This was fantastic!!! I did not add the sour cream or parmesan cheese (because we were out) and I thought it turned out great! My husband thought it was delicious and said the next day that he had been looking forward to the leftovers all day. Definitely a keeper! I will make this again. - 9/22/08

     I was pretty disappointed by how this one came out. I think I was expecting a lot out of this recipe because the ratings are so high. Neither my husband or I liked it very much. It was just ok and I won't be making it again. - 9/24/12

     I made this according to directions, using whole what pasta. It was sooo good and big portions. I cut it into 8 pieces and froze the rest for next week's lunch. Thank you for a great recipe! - 7/7/12

     Very good and so full of flavor, we did not miss all the extra cheese that I would usually have put on a casserole like this. Will be one of our favorites and will definately make again. - 6/21/12

     Omg! This is to die for. I followed the recipe exactly, except for cutting it in half since there are only two of us. I still used the whole can of tomatoes and the full package of spinach (we love veggies) and it still had all the flavor!! I love this and will be making all the time!! - 7/11/15
  • SHARLIEE
     I loved it! I used whole wheat spaghetti, hot rotel and fat free yogurt instead of sour cream. It froze well too! Next time I'm adding mushrooms and zucchini. - 8/1/13
  • CD13296905
     Just made this and couldn't wait to rave about it! The combination of the hot peppers with the creaminess of the sour cream is super. The only change I made was to add a quarter of a few mushrooms and bit of red and green pepper chopped to the onion sauté. - 7/26/13

     I made this tonight--yummy! I used half the sour cream & it still tasted great. Next time I'd add more spinach & maybe mushrooms, too. Delicious & hubby loved it as well! - 3/4/12
