This was my favorite recipe as a kid. All the ingredients I've listed are kid friendly, but you could add spinach or other "adult-only" foods if you like. Serve with a nice green salad and warm bread! Delicious! -- posted by Kathleen Talbot

Manicotti with Basil Cheese Filling and Puttanesca Sauce

Wed, 26 Jun 2002 19:56:58 -0400

I created this for my birthday, a little of this, a little of that. If you don't want to spend the whole day cooking, make the sauce up to a month ahead of time and freeze it it 2 containers. Use the amount you need and save the rest for spaghetti. The story I've heard about the word puttanesca is that it means prostitutes sauce, and that the ladies would prepare the sauce and put it on their windowsills, the smell was so wonderful, it attracted the men. I know it made my old man melt. -- posted by morelhunter

Mike's Stuffed Manicotti w/Meat Sauce

Tue, 03 Sep 2002 17:55:03 -0400

Cheese stuffed manicotti covered in a homemade meat sauce. The tomato sauce is a garden or chunky style. I make the sauce in double batches and freeze. When I need a red sauce I defrost it, heat it, and add the remainder of ingredients (ground beef, sausage, or chicken)to complete the recipe. -- posted by Mike Cook

Freeze Ahead Manicotti

Baked Manicotti

Thu, 07 Aug 2003 20:00:08 -0400

Found this one on Allrecipes.com and tweaked the ingredients just a bit to fit the picky Italian DH. Ground sausage as opposed to ground beef gives the dish much more flavor. Do ahead tip would be to stuff the shells the night before, place in red sauce, refrigerate, and then make the white sauce just prior to cooking. Watch the amount of chicken bouillon as it can make the white sauce way too salty. Serve with some garlic stuffed/sauteed artichokes (Recipe #61210) and a small garden salad. -- posted by Chippie

The Best Cheese Manicotti

Tue, 18 May 2004 20:00:50 -0400

I love Italian food, and I love cooking for my friends at college, so that's how this dish evolved. I don't really use any written recipe when I make it, so some of the seasoning measurements are approximate. This makes seven 2 manicotti shell servings, which is a lot, but it tastes great even as leftovers. -- posted by Nadezhjda

Garlicky Shrimp Manicotti

Sat, 01 Jan 2005 20:01:07 -0500

We love shrimp, we love pasta . . . this recipe combines the best of both! While these are perfectly delicious reheated the next day, I would advise baking any leftovers only when needed as the pasta does tend to soften after reheating, making removal from the baking dish (and therefore a pretty presentation) more difficult. Preparation time does not include time to make the marinara sauce or the home-made manicotti. -- posted by FlemishMinx

3 Cheese Manicotti

Tue, 08 Feb 2005 19:57:41 -0500

Years ago my grandmother ordered me these recipe cards in the mail that you file in a box that the company provides. I didn't much care for the recipes so we ended the subscription. There was one gem in the bunch, though. It remains a family favorite! (I don't remember the name of the company) I have adjusted the cooking times several times based on different ovens (military, moving, rental houses, unreliable ovens!) so you may need to watch it and cook it more or less based on your oven. It is not a very traditional recipe but it is quick with little mess! You can also make it ahead and just cook it when you are ready. -- posted by MSZANZ

Stuffed Manicotti Alfredo

Tue, 28 Mar 2006 16:07:59 -0500

I have only had this at a restaurant once at a place in Louisville called The Old Spaghetti Factory. It was so good, I stuffed myself bigger than the Manicotti! So, I came home and started playing around with a couple of recipes and this resulted. I think it's a delicious alternative to the heavy tomato sauce that's usually on Manicotti for the veggie-worshipers, there's no meat. Serve with a green salad and some garlic bread for a delicious meal. Looks like a lot of work, but it's really not and goes fairly quick. WELL WORTH IT! -- posted by Redneck Epicurean

This recipe is pretty quick and easy, that's why I like it. I found this recipe on the back of the "Ronzoni" Manicotti noodle box. The best way to prep the noodles is to pre-boil the noodles, making them still firm enough to stuff but soft enough for them to finish cooking when you bake the dish in the oven. -- posted by karilfoster

This dish is also great with chicken breasts coated with italian bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and lightly fried in olive oil. -- posted by Chef #920420

Cheesy Beef and Spinach Manicotti

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 18:09:46 -0400

The filling amount should be plenty to stuff 14 shells with maybe a small amount left over --- to remove the bitterness from the spinach, cook firstly according to package directions --- to save time you may cook the ground beef/spinach mixture up to step #4 and refrigerate for up to 2 days. For easier stuffing, warm the mixture in the microwave to just room temperature before adding in the mozzarella cheese and eggs, then proceed with recipe as stated --- ground beef or bulk Italian sausage may be used successfully. This recipe was developed and tested using both on different occasions. I prefer the Italian sausage meat, you could use half of each if desired --- also see my recipe #72308. -- posted by KITTENCAL

Baked Manicotti

Sun, 05 Jul 2009 12:31:20 -0400

Source: Cook's Illustrated We prefer Barilla no-boil lasagna noodles for their delicate texture resembling fresh pasta. Note that Pasta Defino and Ronzoni brands contain only 12 no-boil noodles per package; the recipe requires 16 noodles. The manicotti can be prepared through step 5, covered with a sheet of parchment paper, wrapped in aluminum foil, and refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month. (If frozen, thaw the manicotti in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days.) To bake, remove the parchment, replace the aluminum foil, and increase baking time to 1 to 1 1/4 hours. -- posted by Brookelynne26

Saw this recipe by Crestor (the medicine), at the hospital the other day and it looked very appetizing so I copied it! Have made a few changes but they are slight & I think they made it even more delicious! ;) -- posted by Manami

Baked Manicotti With Prosciutto

Fri, 23 Oct 2009 16:54:14 -0400

This recipe is from America's Test Kitchen on PBS. Their introduction: "The test kitchen prefers part-skim ricotta for manicotti, but whole or fat-free ricotta can also be used. We also prefer Barilla no-boil noodles for their delicate texture resembling fresh pasta. Note that Pasta Defino and Ronzoni brands contain only 12 no-boil noodles per package; the recipe requires 16 noodles." -- posted by SweetPeaNC

Homemade Manicotti

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 20:11:37 -0500

I found this recipe in Rachael Ray's magazine and made it my own. As a kid, crepes (palachinche) in my house was a dessert filled with jelly, rolled like a cigar and eaten before my mother can put them on the table. So I thought it was cool that they were incorporated into this dish. I have to say, I willl never use store bought manicotti for this dish! -- posted by Ingrid Nicolich-Obregon
