CHEESE AND MUSHROOM MANICOTTI



Cheese and Mushroom Manicotti image

I love mushrooms! And if I can combine them with cheese (my other passion) and pasta than it can't get any better. You can use Asiago cheese instead of cheddar, which goes great with mushroom as well. This recipe does not require pre-cooking the pasta.
