Everyone likes this, as do I.
I made as stated; the only thing we didn’t do was top it with sour cream or cheese. It was ok but felt like there was something missing. Probably the first and last time for this.
Used ground turkey instead of beef
Not a fan, kids hated it.

My wife and I loved this stuff. I'll be making it again. And again. Quick and easy. I used V8 rather than plain tomato juice, but otherwise followed the recipe. I did have to add more juice when I microwaved the leftovers. The first time I made this the spaghetti flew all over the kitchen when I broke it up. This time I used elbow macaroni. No mess no fuss and one step eliminated. However, the name no longer fits. Still, I'm sticking with the macaroni.
This is not a rate, sorry. But I wanted to ask a question. Why is your Webpage splitting the ingredients from the directions for your recipes now? Have to print twice to get one recipe?
This was really good, but my family felt it needed "something." We added a can of drained crushed tomatoes and it was wonderful. Even better the second day as leftovers!
I love this. Its the best one I have found to date. With a dash of the sour cream it is nothing but yummmmmmy! Freezes great!
Very similar to the chili mac I make. I cook my noodles till al dente ahead of time so they don't absorb all the moisture from the tomato juice. Delish!!! Add a dash of pepper flakes to give it more zing.
