Manicotti (continued)

Step-by-Step: Manicotti 1, 2, 3

1. Soak no-boil lasagna noodles in boiling water for 5 minutes until pliable, using tip of paring knife to separate noodles and prevent sticking.	2. Using soupspoon, spread about 1/4 cup filling onto three-quarters of each noodle, leaving top quarter of noodle exposed.
3. Roll each noodle by hand and place in baking dish, seam side down.

Step-by-Step: No Shortcut At All

Many recipes replace the traditional pastry bag with a zipper-lock plastic bag. But using a plastic bag to stuff parboiled manicotti shells is a messy, frustrating job that is eliminated by our simple recipe.

Just found this site and this recipe sounds great- have to try this one. Thanks!

Great post. I'll have to come back later to copy recipes.  Thanks. 

I know this isn't Healthy Choice at all, but am putting here for the bakers in the group.   Sounds good for a gathering or company coming.   It was posted on the Recipe Board by quilter_va.

Hello everyone - I'm new here so forgive me if I'm posting this in the wrong place.

I wanted to say that I recently made Vammie's Chicken and Sausage Gumbo and it was outstanding!  The recipe made enough for an army and it was absolutely delicious - I'll be making it again for sure.    

(The only things I did differently: I used a 12 oz. pkg. of Aidell's Habanero & Green Chili Smoked Chicken and Turkey Sausage, used an extra celery rib, used 4 chicken breasts instead of 8 and sauteed them in a little oil first, and I used 1 lb. of shrimp instead of 1/2 lb. - it was on sale.)

So - my thanks to you Vammie for this great recipe!

Hi SunnyNani. I'm waving at you from northern MN. I'm sure Vammie will not mind where the R&R is posted. You gave her a good one. And from all I've seen here, she certainly deserves it.

I just found this thread today so have spent most of the day here and enjoyed myself thoroughly.

I'm looking forward to checking it out - often!

Thank you everyone for a thread that really is full of Recipes to Remember!
