Spinach Manicotti (aka appetizer, entree and dessert)


Isabelle wanted to name this blog: appetizer, entree and dessert, because we had THREE courses tonight. (The little things are so exciting) We started with some sauteed mushrooms, Italian bread with some olive oil/pepper mix, and some cucumbers in Italian dressing. The main reason we ate these first is that everyone was STARVING since it was 7:00 by the time the manicotti was done. Once again the weather was so beautiful that we wanted to be outside enjoying it and took a walk to the park after work. I am thinking I will have to start making meals from the Healthy Living Cookbook and blogging maybe 2-3 times a week... that will take the pressure/guilt off of me when I miss some days! :) Spring and summer are just way too hard to be inside cooking... and we love to grill in the summer anyway. So.... the manicotti turned out very well. I have never made it without chicken or beef, and this was a nice change and perfect for a Friday in Lent! It had a lot of flavor! I liked that it had bread crumbs in it as well as fat free sour cream. I DID add some cottage cheese - just cuz I am crazy like that! (no comments!) This weekend is Erick's 20th Highschool reunion so I probably will not be on here all weekend. Have a great one everybody! PS- Isabelle made the yummy cookies!
