My kids loved this recipe!!! They took seconds. I have tried homemade pasta sauces for 30 years and this was the first that my kids loved.

I thought this was pretty good even though I didn't follow the recipe exactly. I used 1 lb ground beef because that's what I had on hand- and it was plenty enough meat. I left out the sweet red pepper because I didn't have one. I left out the cheese due to preference and I added some garlic. The concept of this was really good. Next time I would like to try making this with 1 lb italian sausage. I would use the red bell pepper, and I would also add more garlic next time. This might also be good with a splash of wine. I also would like to try fresh mushrooms instead of canned. I would use more brown sugar than called for. This is really a great one-pot recipe and is very easy to personalize to your own tastes. Just wanted to know after adding the angel hair pasta it was cooked through in about 15 mins, not 30-35 as called for in the recipe.

Easy and delicious. I subbed diced carrots for the mushrooms and added a clove of garlic. Delicious!

I used ground beef and left out the mushrooms...my husband loved it. This recipe is a keeper.
