Three-cheese Manicotti

I like to serve this recipe with spaghetti and garlic bread/sticks.

1 giant jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce
1 box of manicotti shells (approx 12-14 shells)
3 eggs
2 1/2 - 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups ricotta cheese
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp basil
1 Tbls parsley
Mozzarella cheese
Parmesan cheese
1 package frozen spinach, thawed (optional)

Cook manicotti shells according to package instructions; drain.

For filling:
In a medium bowl, beat eggs. Add ricotta cheese and mix together. Add parmesan cheese, oregano, basil, parsley and a dash of salt and pepper. Mix together well. (Mix in thawed spinach) Stir in mozzarella cheese. Spoon filling into manicotti shells.

In a greased 9 x 13 pan, pour enough spaghetti sauce to cover the bottom well. Pour some parmesan cheese on top and some mozzarella and mix around a bit and spread evenly. Lay shells next to eachother in pan close enough so they all fit. Pour remaining spaghetti sauce over shells and a bit more parmesan cheese, then mozzarella cheese. If you have leftover filling, mix it in around the sides of the baking dish. Cover with tinfoil and bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes.

Makes 8-10 servings
