Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 7 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) package manicotti pasta

  • 2 cups whole milk ricotta cheese

  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 3 ½ (32 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain and cool on waxed paper or aluminum foil to prevent noodles from sticking together.

  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  3. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper; fill manicotti with cheese mixture.
