"Big hit with me and hubby. Just made a few alterations! I used corn starch instead of flour to thicken the white sauce and also added onion and garlic powder and oregano for the lack in flavor. I add..." See moreed some canned diced tomatoes to the beef mixture. Lastly, rather than mozzarella I used 2C of monteray jack and 2C of extra sharp cheddar (mixed and divided evenly in mixture and on top).

Might want to double the..." See more sauce and top with more mozzarella. I will definitely make again when I am in the mood for a beef and noodle dish."
