This is a recipe that my sister and I always begged my mother to make. It was our favorite and now it is my children's favorite, too. Very basic ingredients combine for a wonderful and tasty dish.

We just finished eating this recipe! It turned out very well here. We did make a few substitutions simply due to a lack of the exact ingredigents. We used ground turkey instead of ground beef. Plus at the last minute we noticed that we were out of onions! So we just nixed that ingredient. Everything turned out great nevertheless. We did spice things up with salt pepper and garlic powder. I can see how this might be a bit bland otherwise. But overall a nice piece of comfort food perfect for a chilly autumn night! Read More

This was ok. The potatoes never did reaily get fully cooked. The taste was kinda bland. I had to add more seasoning. My husband and 16 month old daughter liked it. Next time "IF" I make it I will cook the potatoes before adding them. Read More

It was pretty good. I did add salt pepper garlic powder and a little celery salt. I also added beef broth because I thought it needed some moisture. I think it took a long time to prepare. It made way too much for my family of 5. It made a lot of dirty dishes too! Read More

I made this recipe last night but I tweaked it a little bit. Instead of ground beef I used ground turkey and put garlic powder chili powder kosher salt to season it. I didn't put onion in it either. This was AMAZING! My husband had 4 bowls of it! Thank you for sharing this recipe it was easy to make and I have leftovers to feed an army. LOL Read More

Very bland... I originally thought "potatoes and noodles?" and I was right... way too heavy/starchy. Had to keep adding water too. Has potential but needs some major adjustments. Read More
