What I love about this recipe is that it is cheap, filling, and oh so easy! You can substitute any kind of cheese or spices in the sauce to complement a different meat. I came up with this one night when I was tired of using spaghetti sauce on everything. You can substitute whole wheat flour in this recipe as well as whole wheat noodles and fat free milk, that's what I cook with.
