spinach-manicotti-recipe-8-22-07.jpgI dare say that I find myself in an Italian mood this week.  What with a scrumptious cannoli recipe yesterday & a delicious Spinach Manicotti recipe today, I must be longing for Roma.

Well, take advantage of my love for the boot country & enjoy this simply perfect Spinach Manicotti recipe on me.

Ingredients: 

8 oz. manicotti noodles, cooked (one box)
15 oz. ricotta cheese
2 cups mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
10 oz. frozen spinach thawed and drained
1 egg
24 oz. spaghetti sauce
2 teaspoons oregano

Optional add-ins:
1 lb. ground beef (cooked)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 small can sliced mushrooms, drained

What’s Next:

In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except for the manicotti noodles and spaghetti sauce. Spoon the mixture into the cooked noodles and place in a greased 9×13 pan. Pour the sauce over the top of the pasta and cover with foil.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes.
* If you like, after 20 minutes you can sprinkle more shredded mozzarella on top and return to the oven for the last 10 minutes, uncovered.

Eat well & Laugh often!
