Kaykay...sure...Ingredients are one pound of ground beef, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 2-8 ounce cans of tomato sauce with garlic (I used Hunts spagetti sauce with garlic) 1 1/2 cups of sour cream, 1/2 cup of chopped green onions, 1/4 cup (2 ounces) of cream cheese - softened, 4 cups cooked spaghetti (8 oz uncooked), 1 1/3 cup of shredded cheddar cheese Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Boil noodles. Brown ground beef and drain fat. Add in salt, pepper, tomato sauce. Bring to a boil and reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Combine the sour cream, onions, and cream cheese in a small bowl and set aside. Place (drained)spaghetti noodles in 2 quart casserole sprayed with non stick stuff. Spread sour cream mixture over noodles. Top with meat mixture. Top with cheese. Cover and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake additional 5 minutes until cheese is bubbly. Please note the original recipe called for sour cream, cream cheese, and cheddar chees to be reduced or low fat...those items aren't in my vocabulary so I used regular of everything...oh and I didn't measure the cheddar cheese...more is better in Scoot's book!

For any of you that have never met or seen Scooter, this girl needs to stay as far away from reduced or low fat as you can get. I don't know what I'm having for lunch. I'll have to wait until my attorneys get out of the conference room to see what's left over.

Costa, you don't need low-fat either! As for me, the one who could stand to take fat completely out of her day for at least a day or two (HAHA), I had wild rice with creamy mushroom sauce, salad with Italian dressing and a chocolate chip cookie.

NT NO No NO!!! You are perfect!!! And YUM!!!! If I'd had an umph in my rump today, I'd have cooked up something better. Risotto, or a penne pasta or something. It's just dreary gloomy out and I can't motivate. WRT low fat... Yeah, OK, so I've never hadda go that route. But when I've had an urge to be even healthier than I am, and I've tried a low fat something, I usually am disgusted and throw it out. Gimme full fat butter, sour cream, mayo!! OK, I'll do 2% milk, but that's all!

Ah, we don't buy much pb here with Caleb being allergic. I do buy low fat sour cream, milk, mayo, cheese, and salad dressings and have never tasted the difference. Maybe cuz I can't have a lot of the dairy stuff.

I like low fat stuff as long as it's not too low fat. Then it starts to become noticeable.

War I don't notice a difference between them now. But since I don't drink regular sodas, just diet, when I had a regular one, lordy, it was tooo sweet.

Oh I definitely notice the difference. It's one reason I gave up being a vegan... BUTTER!!!! I can definitely taste the difference as well as feel the difference (there's a completely different "mouth feel" with the fake, er, low fat, stuff!). Cheese doesn't melt as well. Salad dressings feel "odd". Mayo tastes gross. Bleah!

I don't miss mayo too much. I just use mustard or light honey mustard on my sandwiches. I have gotten quite used to "no mayo".

LOL Escapee! I actually wrote "slimey" and then erased it! Yeah, it's slimey like snot. Ugh! I don't use mayo or butter much; I use olive oil more than anything. But I'm a huge cheese hound. And I do like my peanut butter!
