This recipe was a bit of a disappointment. The pasta was overcooked and the filling was bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was just okay. The pasta was a bit too al dente for my taste, and the filling was a bit too cheesy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my manicotti turned out dry and bland. The pasta was overcooked and the filling was tasteless. I was really disappointed.

This recipe was a disaster! The pasta was undercooked and the filling was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this again.
