Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Combine Ricotta, 4 oz Mozzarella, Parmesan, 1 tsp sugar, egg, nutmeg, parsley, salt and pepper.
- Stuff uncooked manicotti generously with cheese mixture, from both ends. (Tip: I put mixture in a plastic bag and cut off a small corner to squeeze the mixture in the shells easily).
- Arrange manicotti in a single layer in a slightly greased 13 x 9 inch baking dish.
- Combine diced tomatoes, tomato paste, water, onion flakes, basil, rosemary, oregano, sugar, salt and pepper in a small or medium sauce pan and bring to just a boil.
- Pour sauce over manicotti covering completely.
- Cover baking dish with aluminum foil, crimping edges to seal tightly.
- Bake for 40 minutes at 400°F.
- Remove foil, sprinkle generously with remaining mozzarella.
- Bake uncovered for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
EASY MANICOTTI
No cooking the manicotti, so that's the easy part. Sometimes I will add some frozen chopped spinach, cooked and squeezed dry. A real easy meal!
