The first time I made this, I made some substitutions based on what I had on hand, and the kids LOVED it. The next time I decided to follow the recipe to a T, and the whole family disliked it so much that we ended up throwing out the whole batch. However, as long as I stick to my original accidental alteration of the recipe, it's a staple that I know my kids will always eat. My "fixes" include using all ground beef (no pork), only mozzarella and cheddar (no swiss), and increasing the tomato paste to an entire can. Now it's a keeper!
