I've had this recipe saved for a while and every time I've thought about making I've talked myself out of it because it looks too simple and I imagine it tasting like spaghetti O's. I was so wrong, it turned out delicious! Quick, easy and tasty, my favorite type of recipe. Next time I may top it with some fresh chopped basil, the recipe doesn't need it, but we love fresh herbs and it seems like a natural fit. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

I was in the mood for something different to do with spaghetti and this was just the thing! This was so easy to put together and the kids loved it! I added some premade thawed meatballs to make a complete meal. I would add some garlic to this next time and use vegetable juice in place of plain tomato juice. Thanx for posting this recipe!
