Very good and easy manicotti recipe. I used hot Italian sausage because that was what I had on hand. It gave the manicotti a little zip that I really loved. Next time (and there will be a next time) I think I am going to use a half and half mixture of ricotta and cottage cheese to give it a little creamier texture. I am also going to add a little more spaghetti sauce because the pasta really soaks it up. Great recipe with a great taste. Thanks for sharing, Mommy Diva.

This gets out automatic 5 Star rating. DD ate this up and gave me a thumbs up for it. She's 3 so this is a BIG deal. DH and I loved it also. I made just as stated, except that I so called scaled it to 4 servings. I used about 8 shells and 1 jar of sauce with about 1/2 c of water. Worked out perfect.

Super Easy and Everyone Loved It!!! I scaled the recipe to 3 servings (in half). I used 8 shells and 1 jar of Classico Traditional Basil sauce with 1/2 c of water. I totally spaced the egg so I did not use the egg and it was fine... The filling stayed inside and the cheese melted perfectly. I added the sausage/mushroom mixture to the spaghetti sauce, hope that was right. Thanks Mommy Diva!

This came out so great! My husband loved it. I cooked the manicotti first on accident, but it turned out ok. Also, I added some allspice to the cheese mix. Believe it or not it added that special flavor. Instead of spooning the mixture in the pasta, I spooned it into a plastic storage bag, snipped a corner, and made a "pastry bag". Works great for messy chefs like me! Thanks for the recipe. I'll be making it again.

Very easy!! I subbed lean beef for the sausage and left out the egg, but everything else stayed the same. My 15 yr old son said that I had another winner with this one!!
