This need something to give it more flavor. I added some Garlic salt and onion powder and that helped a bit. You can easily cook the whole pound of pasta, there was plenty of sauce for all of it.

This is a great recipe. I took the advice and used the onion soup mix instead of onion. It really helped with the flavor. I used fresh tomatoes instead of canned stewed tomatoes and add a little more tomato sauce. Will make this again.

Tasty and quick. I shredded the zucchini to make it less noticeable to my children. I didn't go with the onion soup as others suggested as it would make this less nutritious my driving the sodium content way up.

I took advantage of the suggestions and added half of a package of the onion soup mix. It was very good! Loaded with flavor. I didn't have zucchini on hand so I just left it out but didn't miss it. Will add it next time though. Thanks for the recipe!
