Ww Sloppy Joe Casserole

---

A friend gave me a copy of this recipe. i just tried it for the first time tonight. i baked it for 45 minutes and forgot to check on the progress in the oven.....half of the cheese burned! so take the baking time with a grain of salt. i would closely watch, or cover it loosely with foil partially through the baking time. we thought this was a wonderful way to have a cheesy saucy pasta dish but still be able to watch our weight! i haven't tweaked this yet or verified the points calculation - but who can resist sharing another ww recipe! 6 ww points per serving.
