SPINACH AND CHEESE MANICOTTI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Cook manicotti al dente. Then, rinse pasta with cool water and drain well.
• Stir together all the spinach blend ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside.
• In the bottom of an ungreased 13x9 (3 qt) glass baking dish, spread 1 ½ cups (390 G) pasta sauce along the bottom.
• Spoon spinach mixture into a piping or a gallon-size Ziploc bag. Snip 1 inch (2.5 cm) off the corner - you want it big enough to fill the manicotti and be able to let all the ingredients pass through without clogging the piping hole.
• Hold a manicotti shell in your hand and squeeze the filling inside the shell. Let it overflow just a bit on both sides.
• Place the filled shells into the bottom of the pan: if you run out of room in your pan, use a separate smaller pan to accommodate the extra.
• Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake for about 30 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling.
• Uncover dish and top with more sauce. Then, sprinkle remaining ½ cup Italian cheese blend on top of the sauce.
• Bake uncovered for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
• Sprinkle with thyme and add some fresh chives (optional) upon serving. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
