As I perused the Bertolli Pasta Sauces at the store there were all kinds of yummy flavors of their Tuscan-inspired sauces that I could choose from. I would have loved to try the Olive Oil & Garlic but chose the Tomato & Basil because I knew it would be a flavor that both Trent and I would like.

cheese and spices for manicotti filling

Mix together three cheeses and a few spices and you have yourself a yummy filling! Easy peasy!

Piping the manicotti is not as hard as you think. The trick is to make sure you have the perfect size hole in your bag (about 1/2″). I got into the rhythm by the second shell and it went really fast after that.

Fill the majority of the shell on one side and then top off the other side.

It is best to use an oblong crockpot because it holds more shells. The sauce on the bottom of the crockpot helps to thoroughly cook the noodles.

You’ll have to stack the shells on top of each other. Just make sure they are thoroughly covered with sauce.

If you’d rather have a simple marinara sauce, feel free to omit the meat. It’s really up to you and your family!
