To create a light main course, I borrowed bits from different recipes, including my mom's lasagna. No one suspects that the creamy filling is made with tofu. It's easy to prepare, and my toddlers love it. âCarolyn Diana of Scottsdale, Arizona Ingredients:
2 cups meatless spaghetti sauce |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |
1/3 cup finely shredded zucchini |
1/4 cup finely shredded carrot |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1 package (12.3 ounces) silken firm tofu |
1 cup (8 ounces) 1% cottage cheese |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese |
10 uncooked manicotti shells |
Directions:
1. Combine the spaghetti sauce, tomatoes, zucchini, carrot and Italian seasoning; spread 3/4 cup into a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray.
2. Combine the tofu and cheeses; stuff into uncooked manicotti shells. Place over spaghetti sauce; top with remaining sauce.
