Mannicotti


Manicotti                                                                             From: Grandma Sloper
12-14 mannicotti shells                                     2 c. cottage cheese (or ricotta)
½ c. parmesan cheese                                      3. C. mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 eggs
1 tsp. onion powder, or minced onion            2 T. parsley (dry or fresh)
1 can spaghetti sauce (Grandma swore by Prego)
                Mix cheeses (reserving ½ the mozzarella), eggs, onion, parley.  Stuff into
manicotti shells by putting mixture into a gallon Ziploc bag.  Squeeze mixture to
bottom of the bag.  Cut off one corner of bag.  Squeeze mixture out of bag into the
cooked mannicotti shells.  Place in 9”x13” pan with sauce under and covering. 
Sprinkle with other half of mozzarella.  Bake 350 degrees 35 mins. or until bubbly.
NOTE:  This freezes well.  Follow instructions above, then seal tightly with foil or
an airtight lid and freeze.  Allow 10-15 mins. extra cooking time if still frozen.
