I would give it 5 stars if it had an Alfredo recipe and not use the jar kind. Other than that, it is very delicious.

I absolutely loved this! The only changes I made were using the starkist (sp) packaged crab meat instead of canned, it tastes so much more fresh. I also used 2 jars of alfredo sauce, one regular and one mushroom garlic we love by Classico. The manicotti shells are always a challenge for me so maybe next time I will use jumbo shells as suggested by others. Definitely a wonderful dish.

very tasty but very rich dish. Good as a side dish but may be too much as a main dish for some people

this is very close to what i make. i use marina sauce instead.no sugar or chicken broth in mine either.but i do add one egg and half ricotta cheese and half cream cheese.and mozzarella cheese in the filling. top with sauce and more mozzarella cheese.the filling also makes a nice dipping sauce for chips my hubby friends used to tell me.

Pretty good stuff. Took the advice of others and used the easy alfredo sauce from this site. I used two cans of crab and was glad that I did. A lot of work but, it was good.

It was good, a quick recipe. I did sprinkle more mozzarella on top before baking but i thought the sauce was very bland and has some room for improvement.

Great recipe. Doubled the sauce and used 8 ounces fresh crab meat + almost 2 cups of ricotta cheese. Filled 12 manacotti shells perfectly! Very rich, but very good.

I liked these, but I wish I had used my own alfredo sauce recipe instead of jarred. That stuff is just nasty in my opinion. : (

Hubby and I loved it! I made a few modifications as per "AHaft" tips, and it came out delicious! Hubby had 3 servings. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This recipe is so easy and tastes like something you would order from an authentic italian restaraunt on the 'Hill' in St. Louis. The only change I've made is instead of using canned crab meat (because I can only find minced)I use the frozen imitation crab meat, and cut it up. It's sooo yummy!!

Excellent Recipe! I chopped green onions instead of the grated onion and added a little fresh romano the the filling mixture and to the alfredo sauce. When I was at the grocery store purchasing ingredients, I spaced out and got jumbo shells instead of manicotti (maybe I was looking at the photos for this recipe). I think that the shells were perfect in this recipe. I will make this again and probably use shells again. Thanks!

Good recipe. I definitely add some sort of fresh Romano or Parmesan cheese to it whilst baking. Also, I love mushrooms, so I take the saucepan and cook some mushrooms that have been quartered in the residue, sometimes adding a little butter. It's a nice side. Fresh garlic was good too, in the original sauce.

We didn't use the shells, but actual manacotti rolls and we substituted chicken since the company did not like crab. WOW- I love this recipe. It was a bit difficult working with the noodle itself, but the rest was pie. YUMMY!

This was a good recipe. The only thing I would change next time is replacing the alfredo sauce with regular spaghetti sauce. The ricotta and alfredo were just too much where a tomato sauce would have cut some of the richness from the ricotta cheese. Great recipe though! Thanks!

Yummy! My fiance and I both really liked this recipe. I think it would be much better with fresh crab (although more expensive). I didn't get much of that seafood taste. I will also use more sauce and more flavoring in the stuffing next time.

Great recipe that's not too diff from the ordinary but a nice change of pace. While the Manicotti was baking I took the pan I heated the sauce in and added butter to saute some mushrooms in. Was a nice added touch. Also ten minutes before it was done I topped it with an italian cheese blend I picked up at Sam's Club. A bit strong but also was a nice addition.
