My 13 year olds favorite and she insists on making it herself. She like using giant shells in replacement of the manicotti as it is easier to stuff them. Ingredients:

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1 egg |
1 tablespoon chopped parsley |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg |
2 cups spaghetti sauce |
Directions:
1. Prepare pasta as directed on package; drain. Rinse with cold water, drain and arrange in single layer to fill.
2. Meanwhile, mix ricotta cheese, 1 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup of the parmesan cheese the egg, parsley, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
3. Spoon mixture into manicotti shells, using at least 1/3 cup per shell. Place filled manicotti shells in a single layer in greased 13X9 inch baking pan.
