Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup tastefully simple dried tomato & garlic pesto sauce (i could not find this combo, so i bought sun dried tomato pesto and added minced garlic to make my o)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook pasta according to package directions and drain. Set aside.
- Mix together chicken, cream cheese, spinach, Tastefully Simple Dried Tomato & Garlic Pesto and one cup mozzarella cheese.
- Pour 1/3 jar pasta sauce in bottom of baking dish.
- Cut manicotti tubes down one side and spoon 1/2 cup chicken mixture into each shell.
- Roll and place into 11 x 7 inch glass baking dish.
- Pour remaining jar of pasta sauce over the top taking care to cover the pasta.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese on top and bake for 30 minutes.
- Makes two casseroles. Freezes well.
- Optionally you could replace the chicken with Italian sausage.
- I personally use beer can chicken which has a smokey flavor.
