This was really good. I do think that it needs a bit more spice and perhaps more cheese and garlic, but that could just be my family's tastes. The basic recipe is very easy to follow and very filling. I loved the addition of the sausage! The only other thing I had to change was the cooking time, because after 1 hour of cooking at 300 degrees, the noodles seemed to be getting over-done, so I took it out of the oven after 1 hour. I will make this again, adding some garlic, Italian seasoning, Oregano and maybe some shredded cheddar or moz cheese on top, but this is a really easy and really good recipe. (In fact, I re-heated some the next day with some shredded moz cheese on top.) :)
