"When a girlfriend came home from the hospital with her newborn, I sent over this freezer casserole," recalls Jamie Valocchi, Mesa, Arizona. "She and her family raved over how good it was. Try substituting olives for mushrooms or using veal instead of chicken," she suggests.

A little time consuming stuffing the manicotti, but not bad considering you get 2 full trays. I put about 4 1" chuncks of chicken per manicotti.

My husband and I chose this for our special Valentine's dinner. It was extremely easy to prepare and turned out perfect! Delicious!

It was okay. There are other pasta dishes I like better, and my husband wasn't really a fan at all.

Excellent casserole and wonderful to have one put away in the freezer for another day.

I loved the recipe. I have made it a few times now. It also tastes good out of the freezer.

My family loves it! I love that it makes two casseroles. I usually make one with the sausage and muchrooms and the second without the mushrooms. I have never frozen it because whatever is left over always gets eaten for lunch the next day, and there is usually a battle over who will get it! It is a great dish to serve for company, too.

I used some hickory smoked chicken to make this recipe.

I have made this recipe several times and my family loves it!! The chicken instead of the ricotta cheese mixture found in traditional manicotti is a nice change. I omit the mushrooms as no one here likes them. I also have never cooked it from frozen, since we have 3 teenagers, I cook both at once and it is gone in one sitting! I make lots of TOH recipes and they have never let me down.

The chicken inside the manicotti was overcook and had no taste. I must have done something wrong.

I had a blast making this! I decided to shred the chicken, and I used olives on all of it and mushrooms on half. It turned out great- my 3yr. old loved it!!!!!

do you cook the manicotti before stuffing with chicken, or use uncooked

Dry ingredient measurements are not the same as liquid measurements, therefore 4 ounces of shredded cheese is equal to 1 cup, thus 16 ounces is equal to 4 cups.sbc

I have a question about the ingredients listed:"4 cups (16 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese" Isn't 4 cups equal to 32 ounces, not 16 ounces? So should I use 16 or 32 ounces of shredded cheese? Thanks! =)sb
