I tried this recipe with some big modifications. As printed I could only give it 3 stars because of the WHOPPING amount of sodium per serving- it was far too salty for my family. I left out the season salt, table salt, & soy sauce and replaced them with salt free herbs. I also used no-salt-added tomato products along with extra garlic powder and pepper in place of some of the salt in Paula's house seasoning. It still tasted great! I had table & fine sea salt available for anyone who liked saltier foods & hot sauce for some kick. Everyone loved it. Will be making it again this way since it won't send my husband's BP into the atmosphere. FYI- if you prefer a more al-dente pasta skip the 30 min rst time as the pasta gets pretty gummy.

4 stars as it is. 5 stars if you cut the seasoned salt & italian seasoning down to about a 1/3 of what it calls for, otherwise it's way too salty & herby. Also use a little more pasta than it calls for.

My husband and I love this recipe. I didn't follow the house seasoning recipe, (I just added the same ingredients as I saw fit so I can't say if there was too much salt or not. I found the Italian seasoning wasn't overpowering but I might tone it down a pinch. I don't add as much meat and put about 2.5 cups of macaroni. I also put the diced tomato's through the blender for a few pulses because we don't like the chunks. One of these days I'm going to spice it up with some ideas posted by others here. Overall, a great meal that is easy and fairly quick! Happy Eating.

My family doesn't like goulash so when I saw this kind of italian version I decided to give it a try. They love it..the only thing i changed was instead of putting in italian seasoning. I used Del Monte Basil, garlic and oregano tomatoes..Just the right amount of seasoning.. Served with garlic butter texas toast, it is wonderful

My Hubby loves this recipe. Instead of using macaroni noodles, I use Wacky Mac Veggie Spirals. My Hubby doesn't even notice that it's actually vegetable pasta. If you find the recipe to be salty, place a small whole raw peeled white potato in it during the 30 minute setting stage. Stir periodically during the 30 minutes. The white potato should draw out some of the salt. Throw out the potato prior to serving. I also noticed that this recipe says "seasoned salt." The recipe on Paula Deen's web site says "Paula Deen Season Salt;" thus, this may make a difference in the salt level. I actually make sure every ingredient in the Paula Deen Season Salt and the Paula Deen House Seasoning is in my dish (i.e., I make my own of both of these, and I season to taste. Instead of using "diced tomatoes," I use Hunts Rosemary & Oregano Diced Tomatoes.

I didn't find it as salty as most people seem to. In my opinion though there was way too much Italian seasoning. It overwhelmed the whole dish and that was all you could taste. It's a great base recipe though. I'll definitely make again and just cut way back on the Italian seasoning. I also only cooked it for about five minutes after adding the pasta and then let it finish cooking after turning off the heat.

My friend brought this to camp one day.... It was soooo delicious. I asked for the recipe and she directed me here. Hers was a little spicier than the ingredients listed here and she said she only had a can of fire roasted tomatoes and a can of diced tomatoes with chilis in her cupboard so she used them instead of plain diced tomatoes. I NEVER make it any other way. And my house full of picky eaters BEG for this!!!! (Also, I don't drain off ALL the fat.... :

I am married to one of the pickiest eaters around- no peppers and no chunks of tomatoes. So to spice this up a notch I substituted a 15 oz. jar of Mild Salsa for one of the cans of diced tomatoes. I put the remaining can of diced tomatoes and the salsa in the blender to eliminated any evidence of peppers/tomatoes. He asked for a second serving.
