Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:



8 oz Manicotti Shells, uncooked
10 oz Frozen chopped spinach
-- thawed and drained
16 oz Part-skim ricotta cheese
1 c Grated Parmesan cheese
-- divided
1/2 c Egg substitute
2 1/2 c Diced cooked chicken breast
1 tb Basil
3/4 ts Pepper
3 c Low-sodium tomato sauce
-OR- spaghetti sauce

Prepare manicotti according to package directions; while pasta is
cooking, squeeze all the water out of the spinach. When pasta is
done, drain and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix together ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and egg
substitute. Stir in remaining ingredients except tomato sauce. Spoon
the cheese mixture into the manicotti shells and lay in a 9 x 13-inch
pan and a 9 x 9-inch pan, or a pan large enough to hold all stuffed
manicotti. Cover with tomato sauce and sprinkle with the remaining
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Cover and bake 20 minutes. Remove cover and
bake an additional 15 minutes, until cheese is golden brown.
