Hi Sandy,

You have some flexibility on the sauce, because the "noodles" aren't relying on the moisture in the sauce to help them finish cooking. I'd say to eyeball the sauce and if it looks like enough it probably is. The version I made on New Year's was half meat sauce, half tomato sauce because there were some vegetarians present. They loved it, so I guess it must taste just fine without doing the ground beef thing.

I really hope you'll make it. I'm dying for someone to try it because it's soooooooo good!

Happy cooking,
Lisa
