  • 1 pkg. (10 oz.) thawed and squeezed dry spinach
  • 1 - 1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese, set 1/2 cup aside
  • 3/4 cup ricotta cheese or just use 2--1/4 cups setting aside 1/4 cup
  • 1 egg or 2 egg whites

*You can use any type you like. And you can add other things depending on the amount of time you have.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Leave set for 30 minutes. You can add a salad or Italian bread. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes.

I also have a salad like this to go with dinner. Nine Layer Salad

This is great you can make this the night before, the manicotti. If you have children who are are old enough, they could do the salad while you make the Manicotti. It is simple, quick and not expensive.
