CHICKEN MANICOTTI
When one of my friends came home from the hospital with her newborn, I sent over this freezer casserole. She and her family raved over how good it was. Try substituting olives for mushrooms or using veal instead of chicken. -Jamie Valocchi, Mesa, Arizona

CHRISTMAS EVE MANICOTTI
My mother is full-blooded Sicilian. Christmas Eve we celebrated the Vigil and had 7 fish dishes. Since my children were not super fans of anything more than shrimp, I made manicotti to add to the squid and octopus they didn't like. The crepes and the fluffy cheese and spinach filling are sure to satisfy vegetarians as well.

Steps:
- Whisk 4 eggs and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a bowl; gradually whisk flour into eggs, alternating with milk, to make a smooth batter. Whisk melted butter into batter; refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Pour vegetable oil into a small bowl. Heat a small skillet over medium heat; brush skillet with vegetable oil using a pastry brush. Ladle in enough batter to lightly cover the bottom of the skillet, about 1/4 cup; swirl skillet to cover bottom completely. Cook crepe until it turns lightly golden brown on the bottom; flip and cook until other side has small brown spots. Repeat with remaining batter, brushing the skillet with oil as needed to prevent crepes from sticking; set cooked crepes aside between layers of waxed paper.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Lightly mix spinach, ricotta cheese, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, green onion, onion powder, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 2 eggs in a bowl until filling is thoroughly combined.
- Spread 1 cup marinara sauce into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place a crepe onto a work surface and spoon about 3 tablespoons filling, or more as needed, in a line down the center of each crepe. Roll crepe over filling and set into sauce in pan; repeat with remaining crepes and filling, laying filled crepes into pan. Spread remaining marinara sauce over filled crepes. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and mozzarella cheese is melted and slightly browned, 20 to 30 minutes.

- Preheat oven to 350F. To a 9×13-inch baking dish (ceramic or glass preferred), add one jar of pasta sauce in an even, smooth, flat layer. Smooth sauce lightly with a spatula if necessary.
- To one manicotti shell, add about 3 strips of chicken. I find two strips slide in fairly easily and then the third strip I just stuff in however I can. I pack the shells very full with chicken. The exact amount of chicken used will vary based on thickness of chicken breasts, length of manicotti, length of chicken strips, etc. Place the stuffed shell in the center of the baking dish at the top of dish (on the short side of the dish).
- Repeat the stuffing process and continue to place shells down center of pan, then fill in on the sides. I comfortably fit 7 shells down the middle horizontally and 2 shells on each side, for a total of 11. Amount of shells used may vary based on exact baking dish size.
- After all the shells are in the baking dish, cover them with the second jar of pasta sauce, making sure to cover them completely. Exposed areas won’t cook and will simply turn hard and crunchy.
