To Mrs. Organized. Just because someone needs more information in order to make this recipe does not mean they are being critical. The recipe does not indicate whether or not to cook sausage & manicotti. This I feel is something that should be indicated. Not everyone is an experienced cook & would know what to do. You are the one being critical.

A great recipe. Will definitely make again and for dinner guests as well.

I am getting tired of reading comments that are needlessly critical. If you you think recipes are not good for you, that is fine. But don't criticize others that may cook differently than you. A lot of us have lived a long life eating items you think we should not eat.

I thought this was a very easy and fairly quick recipe. My family loves manicotti and stuffed shells, I've tried several recipes, and I think this one was the easiest.

I HAVEN'T TRIED THIS RECIPE YET BUT I THINK YOU WOULD WANT TO BROWN THE SAUSAGE FIRST. THERE IS SO MUCH FAT IN SAUSAGE. I AM GOING TO TRY IT AND WILL LET YOU KNOW. phylskil32

This is by far the easiest and quickest most tasty manicotti that I have ever made....and I have been cooking for my husband for 43 years! All I can say about this recipe, it is a real keeper.
