Baked Manicotti

I got this one off the Kraft Foods website and LOVE IT! So easy and it is actually fun to make. There is something about squeezing the goo inside the noodles that just makes you feel good.
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups spaghetti sauce, divided
1-3/4 cups POLLY-O Original Ricotta Cheese (you can use cottage cheese as a substitution)
1-1/2 cups KRAFT Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 cup KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup pesto (you buy this as a mix by the taco seasoning packets)
12 manicotti shells, cooked, rinsed in cold water


HEAT oven to 350°F.

SPREAD 3/4 cup sauce onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish. Mix cheeses, egg and pesto until well blended; spoon into resealable plastic bag. Use scissors to cut small corner from bottom of bag.

FILL manicotti shells by squeezing cheese mixture into both sides of each shell; place in baking dish. Top with remaining sauce; cover.

BAKE 40 min. or until heated through.


I served mine with a green salad and some french bread.
