My roommate called this the "Poor Man's Egg Foo Young" when we had this for the first time tonight. We didn't have any Ricotta cheese, so I added 4 eggs and chopped onions and added some Italian seasoning. We don't have any Angel Hair pasta, we just used the regular spaghetti that we had last night. Also, we only had a little bit of tomato sauce, so after each having a patty each we're going to have the 2 leftovers with Gravy tomorrow. It was very filling- not helped by the corn we had as a side- can we call it "Super Carb Meal" instead? We'll make it again- great meal to make when you're out of many groceries because it's right before pay day! So yeah, we didn't even bother with the veggies/carrots & spinach.

This recipe was okay, but not great. It was nice to be able to use leftovers. I made way too much spaghetti and sauce from the night before and it was a different take on spaghetti dinner. I might give it another shot, I add extra spices, as others had suggested.
