Turkey & Spinach Manicotti image

I am posting this recipe for safekeeping. It comes from the EatBetterAmerica webstie. This looks really good & easy! I can't wait to try it. I know stuffing manicotti can be a pain, so use a disposable gallon sized bag and snip a corner to pipe the filling into the pasta.
