My guys thought this was very good! Served with Herbed Monkey Bread. It's a good thing Greece and Italy are pretty close together!lol Cut the recipe in half, and still had enough left over for another meal. The only change I made was to use fresh spinach, chopped coarsely. I figured there was enough sauce to cook it, and I was right! I try to stay away from the frozen as much as possible. Thnx for sharing your recipe. Made for Adopt-a-Tag 2009.

This casserole was very easy to make, but I felt it needed more tomatoes or something. I used WW mozzarella and low fat feta, so it may have been the cheese I used which was the problem with the dish. Made for review tag. Thanks for sharing!

Love it!!! The only thing I changed was not adding spinach and I used reg onion instead of red. We loved the amount of black olives in it... zillions! I think the only thing I would change about it would be to use more feta. Yum!

This was delicious and even better the next day! I poached some chicken breasts until just cooked and then shredded it. It was still nice and tender after baking. I used regular pasta and probably more cheese than the recipe stated. I love feta cheese!
