- "Nickaduck" to TNT It was good, and I'll definitely make it again, but I think I would like the consistency and flavor of spaghetti sauce better. I would then leave out the whole step of sauteing the onion and garlic. I use Barilla and it doesn't change the Weight Watcher point count too much. This is huge for 4 servings.
- If you eat smaller servings this is more like 6 servings.
