It was alright, but the cream cheese topping was kind of weird. I wouldn't make it again.

Great dish! My picky family loves it. I sometimes substitute greek yogart for the sour cream to make a little healthier.

DDL ask for recipe! She thought that it was super--similar to lasagna but much easier. Granddaughter loved the cheese.

This was so good. I added garlic to the beef and more spaghetti sauce then called for. Great leftovers. A keeper for sure.

I made this today and my family just loved it. I think I might try some chilli powder and some chunky tomatoes next time.
