This manicotti? So good. Seriously, seriously good. As in, “serves 4″ should be a suggestion – Mike and I finished it all, and were jockeying for the leftover saucy bits in the baking dish. And I am not lying when I say I would happily eat it again, tonight, and the night after, and for many nights thereafter. We gilded the lily a bit by adding a bit of shredded Narragansett Creamery fresh mozzarella on top, and we used NC ricotta in the filling rather than homemade, but seriously, this is just a great, simple, deceptively easy dish. And you should make it for yourself soon.

(Huge thanks to the lovely and talented Jennifer Perillo for this recipe – it’s a keeper for sure.)

I was just studying this recipe at JP’s blog. Did not realize it was made with crepes!
I’m going to make it soon- looks too good not to!
Hope you have a great weekend and get some relaxing in!

Change the label to “Supposedly serve 4 but…that 4 can be 1 depend on who’s reading the label.”

I’m so glad you liked this recipe, and yes, the serves 4 is definitely open to interpretation :)
