WOW – my hubby and I could not get enough of this recipe! We’re trying to lose weight, so I substituted ground turkey, low-fat sour cream, and low-fat mozzarella cheese and we used Vodka Tomato Sauce (sadly, no home-made sauce for us) and it was fantastic. This is definitely added to our favorite recipes!!

Comforting and lovely. REALLY tastes like lasagna – but without all the fuss. I used a spicy tomato sauce (we like things hot) and added some black pepper to the hamburger while it cooked. Left the cheese out so we could top it with the desired amount before reheating for left overs. With salad and crusty bread, this is a wonderful meal!

Just made this for dinner and it was definitely easy! It tasted great too BUT, she’s right, it’s all in the sauce!! We used a store bought kind and it was just ok. Next time I will make my own homemade spaghetti sauce and then see how it tastes. Thanks for sharing this recipe, it is really good!

This could not have been easier, simpler, and more yummy. My boys and husband loved it. I do agree that the quality of marinara sauce is important, as it is front and center in the dish. I also stirred in some grated Parmesan toward the end and it was yummy.

Very, very good! We had to improvise with elbow macaroni and store-bought sauce, which affected the taste a bit I’m sure, but overall this was a great ‘go-to’ recipe for a busy night.

This was so good, and easy! We used ground buffalo instead, and Greek yogurt since we didn’t have sour cream on hand. I also used some grated Romano cheese in addition to the other cheese. The other thing I added was half an onion and two very small zucchinis while browning the meat to add some more veggies.

I just made this for dinner tonight. It seems like it could be a healthier choice in place of “Hamburger Helper”..you can at least control some of the ingredients this way.
I served this to hubby who loved HH in his college days, a 29 yr old son, a 21 yr old daughter and friend.
They liked it quite a bit.
In reading the other comments I think it needed a little more zip at least for our grown up tastes.
I’m sure that kids would LOVE LOVE LOVE this as Ree’s Boy Punks did!
I did add a little minced onion and a little more garlic powder altho’ I think adding minced garlic would be super.
I agree with another comment asking for the recipe for a home made sauce!
I agree that the sauce is probably key here.
I also think experimenting with other cheeses would be good as the mozzarella was pretty bland and I used more than the recipe called for.

I made this last night and my kids love it. They inhaled it! Thanks for the recipe, I’ll be making it again!

This was very easy to make and really tasty. Both my brother and my boyfriend really enjoyed it. My boyfriend said, “this tastes like stirred up lasagna” so the name is spot on! We will definitely be having this again!

Made this tonight and we loved it! It is just my husband and I so we added garlic bread and caesar salad. Made enough for leftovers for tomorrow night! It was super easy to make too!!

This is an excellent recipe. I made this tonight, and my husband and two young daughters loved it. I did vegetarianize it by using the Morningstar Farms Burger Crumbles (1 package is equivalent to 1 pound of ground beef). This was a one pot recipe, since I used the burger crumbles. I am keeping this recipe to use often!

Made this for dinner last night and my husband and kids loved it! Couldn’t be easier and oh, so tasty. Thanks for sharing it.

DELICIOUS!!! We all loved this, so easy, so quick and really tasty. I used homemade red sauce and ground turkey instead of the beef. Paired it with homemade breadsticks and salad…. YUM. The sour cream adds just the right touch… Thank you!

I made this for dinner tonight and it was AMAZING! it was tasty, used ingredients I had lying around the house and got the boyfriends tick of approval! He also couldn’t believe how quickly it was ready! Great, quick meal n would recommend everyone to give it a go
Thanks for the recipe!

This was easy to adapt. I cooked half an onion with the beef and tossed in sliced olives with the cheese. The sauce wasn’t quite enough for our liking, so I added 6 oz (a small can) of tomato juice to thin it out a bit.
