    My whole family loved it. It was like eating lasagna but with spaghetti noodles instead. We ate it with a side salad and low calorie Texas toast and it was delicious. Thanks for the receipe!!! - 4/11/08

    So delicious - used spelt pasta and instead of canned mushrooms used 8 oz of sliced baby portabellas. I also used Rao's marinara sauce. I'm glad it makes so much!! - 2/18/08

    This was delicious!!! I didn't have mushrooms, and they would've made it even better! My kids LOVED it!! They said to make it every day! I didn't even tell them that it wasn't "real" meat! This will be a weekly thing at my house for sure! - 12/31/07

    I omitted the green peppers and added fresh garlic. This was a great meal. You end up with a ton of food though, so if you're single like me, expect to have leftovers for a week! - 9/26/07
