"My mom shared this easy-to-assemble casserole years ago," recalls Brenda Marschall of Poplar Bluff, Missouri. "It's very good with garlic toast," she adds. Large shell macaroni or ziti noodles can be used instead of spiral pasta.

I made a couple changes--used 1 lb. of pasta and replaced the Velveeta with sliced American cheese (5 slices). I agree about the picture-much better one in the Mar/Apr 2001 QC book.

The picture doesn't do this dish justice. All of my pasta was covered with sauce not left looking plain. If you like cheese you;ll love this.
