Ingredients

  • 1 package (16 ounces) mostaccioli
  • 1-1/2 pounds ground beef

I have made a variation of this recipe for YEARS! Never thought of adding the cheddar cheese soup so I'm looking forward to adding that the next time I make it...which will be this week! It's also very quick and easy!

I made this tonight & we LOVED IT!! I actually used 1lb.gr.beef & 1lb.sausage. I used way more shredded cheese cause we love lots of cheese & I did use alittle more speghetti sauce. This will become a regular in our house now. The can of chedder cheese just gives it a creamy good taste. I get so excited when I try a recipe & its this good. Can' wait to try out on friends & family members. Thanks Taste of Home!!

I only made one casserole dish worth. I used most of the can of cheddar cheese soup and most of the jar of spaghetti sauce.

I was planning on making this exactly as the recipe called for but had no mozzarella cheese so I just used whatever I had on hand which happened to be a combo of colby jack and cheddar. I took it to our Church Dinner today and I brought none home. I think a person could use whatever kind of cheese they prefer in this dish. I will definately be making this again in the future. Oh and too, I didn't have the Mostaccioli Pasta so I used Penne which I had on hand, but this recipe looks like the Penne. Anyway, very "DELISH"!!

I would definately make this again !! My family loved it....I made it with sausage pieces instead of the ground beef. I also added more shredded cheese to it - they want to know when I'm making it again and we didn't even finish dinner yet !!

Rich and tasty easy to make.

Suggestions : I used the frozen birds eye peppers & onions. and I used 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning. Mmmmm! goood! First time making it tonight 9/10/10. These subtle changes enhance an already great recipe.
