This is my favorite recipe when company's coming. It's prepared the night before, plus the manicotti is stuffed uncooked, making it even more convenient.

Been making this for years. I love that you make it in advance. I usually make 3 or 4 trays and yes, I do FREEZE them. I let them sit overnight in the fridge as in the directions, and whatever I don't put in the oven, goes right in to the freezer. I don't add the cheese on top of those. When taking out of the freezer, I counter-top thaw them, then sprinkle the cheese and bake.

I was disappointed because I found the manicotti to be very bland.

I liked this recipe enough, but 2 jars of sauce was waaaay too much..it overwhelmed the rest of the dish. I will try to make this again, but with half of the sauce recommended.

Very simple to make. Love that you don't have to cook the noodles before you stuff them. Next time, I think I'll add some italian sausage into the sauce before I pour it over top the noodles.
