Great, versatile recipe. I use this for my stock of freezer meals. Instead of using manicotti shells, we use lasagna and roll the filling up inside. Kids love helping out with making the lasagna rolls! Can easily add other ingredients to compliment your personal taste. Thanks so much for posting this!
