    This was very good, only made about 1/3 of the size and used a can of tomatoes that I pureed int he food processor(didn't have any spag sauce). It almost reminded me of a veggie lasagna - 7/28/14

    O.K.
    A lot of work for something not wonderful, kids didn't like it either, may have been better with lean beef or turkey. - 1/11/09
