Good and easy! The store didn't have zucchini so we had a side salad instead.

This was very good and I will make it again. I did substitue the tomato sauce with one that had basil, garlic and oregano and used two 8 oz cans.

I only changed one thing - added Cajun seasoning instead of the Italian seasoning. Delicious! :)

Saved recipe, first thing! After reading through the recipe and reviews, sounds wonderful. My husband is a dairyman, so I consider it a must to provide very nutritious meals. This fits the bill, for sure.

I loved this along with my Mother and Stepfather. My Stepfather Is a diabetic and Both my parents hate zucchini And tomatos but they loved this. They keep insisting that I make it again. Even though I've made it 4 times since then. I sincerely Believe you the viewer to try this and Its Healthy and works with any diet. If you dont like pork it can work with different meats also tofu.

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!

This was quite tasty and very easy. My husband really liked it a lot. I like the idea of using onion soup mix in place of the onions.

I make this recipe regularly, but add 1/2 package of onion soup mix in place of the onions. You won't believe the difference in taste. It takes it from a good recipe to a great one.
