I’m soooo happy to hear that Rachel!! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! You should try my Hamburger Helper and/or Beefaroni recipes for them to see how they’d like those too sometime! (And no onions in them!)

This was so good! Normally my kids refuse anything with onions, but they didn’t even notice it in this one because they liked the sauce so much.  

I made this recipe. Something different for us. Next time I will add more sauce because it was kind of absorbed in the oven. Oh of course I used twice the amount of garlic. 

3/4 lb. is the weight of the pasta when it’s dry, yes. I believe that would be about 6 cups of cooked penne.

I’m so happy that it was a hit with the grandkids! I bet they would love my Beefaroni recipe too! 🙂

Made as directed, but did add a thin layer of favorite pizza sauce thinly over top of casserole and , then, sprinkled the mozz cheese over top of pizza sauce before baking.  
Very Tasetee.   Excellent change on grandkid-favorite Goulash!   Thank you for sharing it!   Recipe amounts seem perfect! 

Hi Denise! That will be fine! I would use a bit less pasta maybe since there will be 1/2 cup less sauce. (Totally optional, I like my pasta saucy!)

You’re very welcome Dennis! I’m so happy you enjoyed the flavor enhancers. Thanks so much for the great comments and for taking the time to leave a review!🩷
