this came from Mr. Food's quick and easy diabetic cooking * an easy way to fill the pasta is to place the cheese mixture in a large resealable plastic storage bag, then snip off a corner, just squeeze the filling into the shells, like using a pastry bag*

PESTO MANICOTTI (NO TOMATOES)
I discovered this recipe recently in our local newspaper. I have nothing against tomatoes (love them actually) however I wanted to point out their absence from this recipe. PS> I added about one quarter cup of myzithra to the manicotti.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with a small amount of olive oil.
- Bring a large stockpot of salted water to a boil. Add the manicotti and cook al dente. Drain and arrange them on a tea towel so they don't touch. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
- Meanwhile, remove the excess water from the spinach by placing the leaves in a salad spinner. Continue spinning until no more water runs out.
- Coarsely chop the spinach.
- In a large bowl, combine the spinach, eggs, ricotta, mozzarella, Greek yogurt, garlic and oregano. Transfer the cheese mixture to a Zip-Lock-type plastic bag, squeeze out the air and seal. Set aside.
- Spread half of the pesto in an even layer over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Snip off one corner of the bag of cheese mixture. Holding a manicotti tube in one hand and the bag in the other, insert the tip of the bag into the pasta tube and squeeze gently to fill it. Tip: to make filling easier, fill from both ends.
- Arrange each filled tube in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
- When all the tubes are filled, spoon the remaining pesto over them. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- Uncover the pan and sprinkle the manicotti with Parmesan. Bake, uncovered, for another 15 minutes, or until the Parmesan is melted and lightly browned.

CHEESY BEEF AND SPINACH MANICOTTI
The filling amount should be plenty to stuff 14 shells with maybe a small amount left over --- to remove the bitterness from the spinach, cook firstly according to package directions --- to save time you may cook the ground beef/spinach mixture up to step #4 and refrigerate for up to 2 days. For easier stuffing, warm the mixture in the microwave to just room temperature before adding in the mozzarella cheese and eggs, then proceed with recipe as stated --- ground beef or bulk Italian sausage may be used successfully. This recipe was developed and tested using both on different occasions. I prefer the Italian sausage meat, you could use half of each if desired --- also see my recipe #72308.

Steps:
- Grease two 9-inch baking pans.

- Add in garlic and cook, stirring for 2 minutes.
- Transfer to a bowl then mix in the drained spinach, Parmesan cheese and ricotta cheese; set aside to cool (about 10-15 minutes).
- When the ground beef is cool add in mozzarella cheese, eggs, seasoned salt and black pepper mix well to combine, at this point you may season with more salt and pepper if desired and if you want more garlic flavor add in some garlic powder to the mixture.
- Spread about 1/4 to 1/3 cup marinara sauce onto the bottom of each baking pan.
- Carefully stuff each noodle with the beef mixture then place in one layer in the baking dish (you should have 7 in each dish).
- FOR ONE PAN; drizzle about 1-1/2 cups (or more) marinara sauce over shells, sprinkle about 3/4 cup or more of mozzarella cheese over sauce, then sprinkle with 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese on top; repeat with remaining pan.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Cook manicotti al dente. Then, rinse pasta with cool water and drain well.
- Stir together all the spinach blend ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside.
- In the bottom of an ungreased 13x9 (3 qt) glass baking dish, spread 1 ½ cups (390 G) pasta sauce along the bottom.
- Spoon spinach mixture into a piping or a gallon-size Ziploc bag. Snip 1 inch (2.5 cm) off the corner - you want it big enough to fill the manicotti and be able to let all the ingredients pass through without clogging the piping hole.
- Hold a manicotti shell in your hand and squeeze the filling inside the shell. Let it overflow just a bit on both sides.
- Place the filled shells into the bottom of the pan: if you run out of room in your pan, use a separate smaller pan to accommodate the extra.
- Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake for about 30 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling.
- Uncover dish and top with more sauce. Then, sprinkle remaining ½ cup Italian cheese blend on top of the sauce.
- Bake uncovered for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
- Sprinkle with thyme and add some fresh chives (optional) upon serving. Serve hot.
- Enjoy!
