This lasagna-like entree takes me back to my childhood. I got the recipe from a friend's mother, who fixed it for us when we were kids. I made a few changes to it, but it's still quick and delicious. —Dallas McCord Reno, Nevada

My other review should have been 5 stars, but it won't let me change it.
Everyone in out house loves this recipe. Because it is such a heavy dish, we normally only make it every few months, but when we do the leftovers are always gone the next day.

I make this at least once a month in the fall and winter. I make homemade spaghetti sauce and put the noodles down first, then a layer of sauce, then the dollops of cream cheese, then I sprinkle the shredded. I have family beg me to make this! It's wonderful

how would it taste if the sausage was Italian-spiced turkey sausage, and you got low-fat/fat-free sour cream and cream cheese? I'll bet, all in all, you can't tell it's a little healthier.
no wonder it's so popular, look at the calories in just a 1 cup serving, and the amount of fat and sodium. It looks heavy. I can't believe this has all that sour cream and cream cheese too! This is what my great grandmother would have made, but then she shoveled coal every day of her life.

Neither I nor my 12-year-old son liked the recipe. We will not make it again.
