Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Good for the entire family Cons: Takes a few minutes to put together This was a great cassarole that was gone in one meal. My kids had 2nds! I altered it a little and used soy milk instead of cream and lowered the pasta and cheese to get a lower carb count. It turned out just like the picture and tasted great. Next time I am adding broccoli. lala MAJOR LCF POSTER! Registered: March 2005 Location: SALINAS, CALIFAS Posts: 1030 Review Date: Thu March 24, 2005 Would you recommend the Recipe?

Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Easy to make...a great dinner for carbers and non-low carbers. Cons: WOW...what an awesome casserole. This really does taste better than the Hamburger Helper Cheeseburger Macaroni. I used Carb Options sauce instead of the Ragu full carb sauce. To reduce the carb count even further, I would say that you could use less cheese on top or even avoid it all together...it was pretty tasty with the cheese topping, though. If you add onion powder along with the garlic powder, it's even better. If you used less sauce, you might be able to make this dinner in a skillet and further reduce the carb count...just a thought. Thanks for a great recipe! It's awesome. Nikouli Senior LCF Member Registered: June 2008 Location: Florida Posts: 477 Review Date: Tue June 24, 2008 Would you recommend the Recipe? Yes | Rating: 0    Pros: Cons: How many carbs are in each serving if you DO use the low carb sauce?
