Most manicotti recipes are made with cheese. My family has always enjoyed this one, because it's stuffed with meat.
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package manicotti
1 lb extra lean ground beef
1 egg, beaten
8 ounces grated part-skim mozzarella cheese
3 slices bread, cubed
3/4 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (26 ounce) jar meatless spaghetti sauce
grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Brown ground beef & drain.
2. Cook manicotti using package directions.
3. Do not drain. Run cold water over it until water in pan is cold; leave manicotti in water until needed.
4. Meanwhile, combine ground beef, egg, mozzarella, bread, milk, salt & pepper. Stuff each manicotti shell. Place in greased 13x9x2 baking pan. Pour spaghetti sauce over top, cover with foil & bake in 350 degree oven for 50 minutes. (1 hour if made ahead & chilled.).
5. Pass grated parmesan cheese when serving.
