This was pretty good. I only cooked the shells for 5 minutes to make them easier to stuff. I also used italian bread crumbs. I did not add the wine but still enjoyed the recipe.

Very good. I used ricotta cheese and topped with motzarella. I used Prego mushroom sauce because I had it on hand.

Easy recipe, another great way to use hamburger. I used 3/4lb of beef and just barely had enough filling for all the pasta. I subbed a can of tomato puree for the tomatoes I didn't have and used a Texas white wine. Nice flavor to the sauce, great budget meal too as it requires few ingredients. The bread crumbs made the filling a bit mealy and odd textured, it didn't hold together at all even after standing 10 min after coming out of the oven. We didn't like it enough to make our favorites list, but it was a nice meal. Thanks!

Excellent! I pre-cook manicotti until just past the brittle stage (approx 3 min) so that they won't split when I stuff them. I much prefer this to the cheese stuffing usually used in Italian restaurants. This recipe joins my 'make often' file.

I made this for the second time tonight. The first time I rated it 2 stars following the recipe exactly as it was. This time I used my own pasta sauce, a great recipe I found here on allrecipes.com. I'll rate it a 3 now because although it was better, it still just didn't do it for me. The meat mixture was bland and dry. I even added extra garlic, garlic salt, and an extra teaspoon of Italian Seasoning. It needs more cheese too in my opinion. Not the best, but not bad either.

I also used 1/2 lb Italian sausage with the ground beef and substituted a jar of spaghetti sauce. In addition, I added an another egg and extra cheddar and Parmesan cheese to the filling. Everyone loved it, even the 3 and 5 year olds.

This recipe is GREAT! Who cares what you call it! Manicotti, canelloni...just call it DELICIOUS! The only thing I changed was using jarred sauce instead of making my own. VERY GOOD RECIPE!

I'm sure this is a wonderful recipe. However, when a meat filling is used the name switches from manicotti to Canneloni. Mangia!

Good recipe, will definately use again. I made a few minor changes to the recipe. I made the meat mixture half ground beef and half Italian sausage. I used ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese and added a box of frozen spinich, squeezed dry. Also a little Italian seasonings.

I made many changes to this per the other reviewers. My whole family loved this. I made my mother-in-law's sauce. I mixed grnd beef and mild italian sausage. I added extra garlic - yum. I added spag sauce and about 3 tbsp of ricotta cheese to the meat/sausage mixture. I threw a couple of tsp of italian seasonings onto the meat mix as well. With all those changes I would give it 5 stars!

This was a great and easy dish to make--it was a hit---i used jar sauce and i also added 1/2 jar alfredo on top of the manicotti. next time i will probably use 1/2 beef and 1/2 sausage. will make it again

I did make a couple of changes.....I used jar tomatoe sauce (also added a a few tablespoons to the meat.) I didn't have manicotti shells, so I made my own crepes. Well, the crepes taste better with the cheese filling. THe meat filling needs a heartier shell. I meat mixture seemed kind of tasteless....I would add more salt and maybe add some ground sausage to extra kick!! I would make again, but using packaged shells and some sausage mixed into the mixture!
