Have a freezer full of venison? This wholesome recipe is perfect for using your pre-packaged ground venison meat. My three and six-year-olds love it, and it isn't gamey tasting at all!!
I've made this recipe at least 6 times since I found it on-line. I used Venison the first time but now use ground combo Beef/Pork . Wonderful.
Read MoreIt was OK. Next time, if I make it again, I'll just mix up the noodles and meat mixture and top it with the cheeses. I don't understand the layering and it just didn't work for me. The flavor is OK. Tastes kind of Italian, which I'm not crazy about.

I've never liked the taste of vinsion and usually refuse to eat it, but this recipe was to die for! I made a few minor changes: instead of using tomato suace, i used a jar of Ragu traditional spaghetti sauce. I didn't have basil on hand, so i used 1/4 tsp. of oregano instead. I also used 1/4 lb of ground beef mixed in with the venison meat to cut the gamey taste. It was awesome! It went so fast too. Serve with garlic bread and it's a meal fit for a king!

Quick, easy and inexpensive dish with great flavor! Next time I would use less noodles and more sauce. I ended up putting some spaghetti sauce in it to make it a little saucier to suit our tastes and it was great. My husband wants me to make this for deer camp this year!
We have a freezer full of venison, so I am always looking for new ideas. I used 12 ounces of wheat penne and 1 1/2 cans of tomato sauce. Even though I used less pasta/more sauce it was still a little dry.
I made this after my dad got a deer. I couldn't detect a gamey taste, and I didn't change anything. I think next time I'll mix it all together instead of layers. Thanks for sharing!
i did this exactly according to recipe except i used gluten free pasta. and it seemed to be way lacking in sauce. so I'm wondering, does the gluten free make a difference? maybe only one 8 oz pkg would have been better...
Try changing the spice pallette on this dish. Used cumin and turmeric, also substituted whole wheat rotini, mixed mozzarella, cheddar and swiss cheeses, and added one 15oz can of pinto beans. Instant hit in our house.
This was wonderful... easy and reheats well. I added more tomato sauce... just personal preference
normally made with sausage, the venison brought a more earthy flavor. perfect for the incoming fall/hunting seasons
This recipe is awesome! I make it just the way it said too. Making it again tonight.
Loved using chopped venison. The only thing I changed was I added a chopped red pepper with the onions. And at the suggestions of other people, I added more sauce...used a 24 ounce jar instead of the recommended 15 ounce.
Not a bad recipe. Definitely needed more sauce and less noodles. I used penne since that's what I keep on hand and it definitely had a high noodle to meat ratio. I plan to add more tomato sauce and mix the noodles and meat next time instead of the layering.
