You don't need to cook the noodles as long as you lay sauce down on the bottom of the pan and then lay the noodles. The reason this works is because the noodles cook with the moisture from the sauce. I have been doing this for 15 years and the recipe was handed down from my mom. So it does work!! Its so quick and easy!!! Make sure your noodles are covered in sauce. (top layer)
