Tip: When covering with foil – spray foil well with nonstick cooking spray so the cheese doesn’t stick when removed.
Review: Amazing, amazing, nothing short of amazing. And you guys - it's meatless! Shock! But it was so filling with all of those mushrooms and it tasted absolutely sinful. Austin said he "didn't even miss the meat." WOO! This is a regular. Fo sho. It also marks my first time using no-boil noodles - i'm NEVER going back. They made this SO easy and much less time consuming.
