"Good recipe as is, affordable and tasty. We used whole wheat penne and reduced fat feta. My 14 month old loved it, it was the first time she's had spinach. Thanks for the recipe, this will be in our regular dinner rotation now."

Macaroni and Cheese V
Submitted By: LEACH
"This is my mom's recipe for macaroni and cheese with a bread crumb topping and a little dry mustard for zip. It is great!! You can make it more or less cheesy, depends on your taste."
Rave Review: FRIDAGIRL_36
I really liked this recipe--it's good old-fashioned comfort food! I used whole-wheat pasta for a healthier kick, and instead of bread crumbs, I crushed whole-wheat crackers. I served it with a salad and it was great!!
Tuna Noodle Casserole From Scratch
Submitted By: MVANWINKLE
"No canned soup mix in this recipe! Mushrooms, onions, celery, and peas all go into this comfort casserole."
Rave Review: t_jones
Great recipe , the only one I make because it is truly from scratch , no canned soups ! I add olives and cream cheese on occasion and lots of onion ,garlic and crumb topping. I don't use butter(olive oil instead) , peas or mushrooms (carrots instead). Always great ,I have doubled the tuna for more protein.

Hearty Vegetable Lasagna
Submitted By: Sue
"This hearty, vegetable lasagna is the only lasagna my husband will eat. We love it!!! Hope you all enjoy as much as we do."
Rave Review: LUCKYKEL
"Loved it! I have turned to a new process for the lasagna noodles: lay hard noodles on sheet pan. Pour boiling water over to soften. Layer as usual. Works every time. I also like spinach (frozen pkg. thawed & drained) in with the ricotta mix."
