Categories: Beef, Cheese, Herbs, Vegetables, Pasta
Yield: 8 Servings
1/2 lb Lean ground beef
1 cl Garlic; minced
1 c Ricotta cheese
4 oz Mozzerella; grated
1 lg Egg
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 ts Oregano
8 Manicotti shells
MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
1/2 c Oil
1/2 c Onion; chopped
1/2 c Bell pepper; chopped
2 cl Garlic; minced
2 lb Can tomatoes; crushed
8 oz Can tomato paste
1 ts Salt
1 ts Sugar
1/2 ts Oregano
1/2 ts Basil
1/2 lb Fresh mushrooms; sliced
- thin
1/2 c Grated Parmesan cheese
Cook manicotti shells according to package directions.
About 8 minutes. Set aside to cool for handling.
Brown ground beef and drain. Combine with the rest of
the stuffing ingredients with the hamburger. I added
frozen chopped spinach, that I thawed, drained and
squeezed in a paper towel to get out all the liquid, to
the filling pictured here. It is entirely optional.
Stuff the shells with the filling when cool enough to
handle. You can use a spoon or a butter knife or just
use your hands, a cooks best tool. Every once-in-a-
while a tube will split a little, not to worry, just
gently press into filling .
Place stuffed shells in baking pan. Do not crowd.
SAUCE: Prepare vegetables for sauce. Chop onions, green
pepper, and garlic. Slice the mushrooms very thin.
Sautee onion, pepper, garlic, in oil until transparent.
Add can of tomatoes, tomato paste, salt, sugar, oregano,
basil and mushrooms. Simmer for at least and hour.
Pour cooked sauce over stuffed manicotti noodles in the
baking dish. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake covered
@ 350ºF/175ºC for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake 15
more minutes. An average serving is two shells.
