Our youngest daughter tweaked this recipe to our tastes. To stuff the shells, we cut off the end of a disposable cake-decorating bag and slipped the filling inside. It worked like a charm. No mess!-Gale Sparling, Pembroke, Ontario

This recipe was a disaster! The manicotti was overcooked and the filling was dry.
