I haven't made it yet. It is actually the inspiration for tonights dinner. We are doing a month of no grocery shoping except perishables, to clear the pantry, we do it every year starting the day after christmas. Part of the eat healthy New Years resolution and be more mindful of what we use not just shop for convenience foods because its easier. I needed an idea and came across this. Now I don't have the manicotti so will use the bow ties I have and dice the chicken and ham up to mix in the sauce. I think it will be ok I'll let you know.

The calorie and sodium count of this and many other of these recipes is very, very high.

Had company over the weekend and wanted to prepare something special for everyone. Served the manicotti with a salad and garlic sticks. Everyone loved it and wanted the recipe. Will prepare this dish again and again.
