I'm Italian, and you did it almost exactly like I do it. You can also use low fat ricotta, also I would have had to leave out the cream, my family would want it without. I sometimes use a tablespoon of dark brown sugar or a packet of Splenda to cut the acidity, but the rest is like mine. My mouth is watering. great recipe!

Hi Natasha: Definitely couldn’t miss Sharky at 8:27. Your Manicotti looks soooo delicious! I used to make this back in the day, but didn’t boil the Manicotti. Layered sauce on the bottom of the pan, stuffed the uncooked shells with the filling, topped them with more sauce and sprinkled with the cheese. Put in frig overnight and baked the next day. Noodles were perfectly al dente. 💜😎🇺🇸

My mom would either make lasagna or manicotti for Christmas. You made it exactly right. My favorite spice is nutmeg it goes in everything. The extra ricotta can make so many things. My favorite Christmas dessert is ricotta cheese cake. It has dried fruit delicious. I love the cookbook I had to have it. The recipes are meals I definitely would eat. I also love the desserts. I also like the recipe for ice pops. I myself love ice pops all year long.

@JBM425 7 ай бұрын

A half-teaspoon of nutmeg is also great in mac and cheese. I got that from a recipe by Chef Jean-Pierre; although I preferred another recipe for M&C, I appropriated the nutmeg from his recipe into mine. It really kicks up the cheese!

@randymiller4574 7 ай бұрын

Great recipe. I make something similar for lasagna rolls. The only difference is that I use small curd cottage cheese, because it adds a more flavorful balance than ricotta.

I finally took the plunge and tried this! I've never been a fan of Ricotta cheese, but I do use it sparingly. Well, I made this yesterday, and it was delicious! I cut the recipe in half as there's only me and my hubby. I think that the Marinara and heavy cream blended well with the Ricotta cheese. Therefore, it wasn't as pronounced. It's definitely a keeper recipe that I will keep in rotation. Thank ya ma'am! You've done it again! ❤😊❤
