My family loves both pasta dishes and Mexican food, so I came up with this recipe that combines the best of both worlds. You'll find this irresistible on cool evenings. Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds bulk pork sausage |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1 can (16 ounces) refried beans |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 package (8 ounces) manicotti, cooked and drained |
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce |
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, optional |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook sausage and onion until sausage is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the beans, chili powder and cumin. Stuff into manicotti shells.
2. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Combine tomato sauce and chilies if desired; pour over manicotti. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6 servings.
