Speaking of, gotta try this one for SPINACH MANICOTTI
if you’re looking for a week-night wonder. It is really
easy to do prepare these and the results are so tasty
I love the heavy meat loaded lasagnas and other saucy
pastas but for manicotti I’ve come to prefer the filling
of just the spinach & cheeses. I do like to serve with
some extra heated sauce and some shredded cheese over
each. Just do some garlic bread and maybe a salad for
a well rounded meal and I added the garlic bread in here
today too.
