This recipe was a waste of time. The manicotti shells were tough and the filling was tasteless. I won't be making this recipe again.

The manicotti shells were overcooked and the filling was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This manicotti recipe was a bit bland for my taste. The filling was a little dry, and the sauce lacked flavor. I probably won't be making this recipe again.
