Three Cheese Meat Manicotti

This is not a good picture of this dish and it definitely does not do the dish justice.  This is a yummy dish that my whole family loved.  It was actually quite simple to put together as well.  We will be making this dish more often!

Ingredients:

12 uncooked manicotti shells
1 pound hamburger meat
1 large onion, chopped
1 jar (26 ounces) three cheese spaghetti sauce
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese
1 carton (15 ounces) ricotta cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1 egg


Directions:

Cook manicotti acccording to package directions.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook meat and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.

Stir in the spaghetti sauce, sugar, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and garlic powder. 

Place 1 cup meat sauce into a greased 13 x 9 baking dish.

Drain manicotti.

In a large bowl, combine the cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese, ricotta cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and egg. 

Stuff into manicotti shells.

Place shells over meat sauce and top shells with remaining sauce. 

Sprinle with remaining Parmesan cheese.

Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until bubbly.

ENJOY!!
