Microwave Manicotti

This is a very tasty, simply-made Italian meal. I love that it's made in the microwave!

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. hamburger (90% lean)
  • 1 (32 oz.) jar spaghetti sauce
  • 1 cup water
  • salt, to taste
  • 1 (15 oz.) carton Ricotta cheese
  • 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
  • 8 oz. mozzarella cheese
  • 1 (8 oz.) pkg. manicotti
  • 2 eggs

Directions:

Brown hamburger, drain and stir in spaghetti sauce and water (use water to rinse spaghetti sauce jar), and 1 tsp. salt. Cook on high for 5-6 minutes.

In medium bowl, combine ricotta, Parmesan, eggs, pepper, 1 1/2 cup mozzarella, and 1/2 tsp. salt. Mix well.

Cover with plastic wrap. Cook on medium high 30 - 35 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Servings: 6-8
Prep Time: 20-25 Minutes
Cooking Time: 30-35 Minutes

Did I miss something? What did you do with the manicotti? I use to stuff it with a hamburger mix, but didn't understand what you did with yours?

Do you fill manicotti?
