This pasta was delicious but I do think extra sauce is needed. So I improvised on the amounts to make it saucy enough my family. They loved it!!

My picky husband LOVED this. I made it pretty much to the letter of the recipe... used A-1 for the steak seasoning. Anyway, he went BACK for SECONDS! Posted a picture of my dish on FB and had a dozen hits in 5 minutes how Amazzzzing it looked. Plan on making it again when I have all the grandkiddos here I know they will love it!

It says DILL relish.......not SWEET......may make a BIG difference.

Very yummy, quick and easy! I increased the recipe just a bit to feed my family of 6. I did not have penne pasta on hand so I used bow-tie which worked great. I also added in some tomato sauce and left out the mustard (because I happen to hate mustard!) I used steak sauce instead of seasoning and used about 1/2 teaspoon of the seasoned salt. I also used about twice as much cheese and also added in two leftover cooked crumbled bacon strips. I had no dill pickle relish on hand so I used about a tablespoon of juice from a jar of dill pickle spears. Family commented that it really did taste like a cheeseburger. Might need some more salt or some seasoning- seemed to be missing a little something. Definitely needed something green on top for some color- kind of has a blah presentation otherwise.

I made this recipe and I did not like it. Next time I will not add sweet relish. I did not like the relish in the recipe. Yet I love relish on my hot dogs. Any other ideas to add to this recipe?

I've been making this for over a year with great results. Everyone loves it and I've given the recipe to dozens of people. One of my tweaks which I didn't see mentioned in the comments is that I use plum tomatoes and salsa in place of the canned tomatoes. Either way, though, it's delicious, and a very easy way to eat healthy because it's just SO good!
