Mexican Manicotti (Enchilada Style) image

I was looking through all the Mexican manicotti recipes and none of them use enchilada sauce. This is the product of that experiment. I suggest making recipe#71916. It is my go to sauce recipe. You can adjust the spice level by using a spicy or mild chili powder.

Categories     Manicotti

Time 1h

Yield 12 noodles, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground turkey
1 jalapeno (chopped)
1 green pepper (chopped)
3 tablespoons taco seasoning (I use Penzey's Bold Seasoning)
1/2 cup water
1 (15 ounce) can refried beans (I like to use black beans)
12 manicotti
3 cups enchilada sauce
1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 350.
  • Brown turkey, jalapeno, and green pepper until turkey is cooked through.
  • Meanwhile heat water and cook manicotti according to package directions. (I always make a couple extra noodles because one or two inevitably break.).
  • Drain turkey (if needed). Add water and taco seasoning. Simmer for about five minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add refried beans. Let cool, so you don't burn yourself when you stuff the noodles.
  • Put a thin layer of enchilada sauce at the bottom of 13X9 pan.
  • Stuff cooked noodles with turkey mixture and place in pan.
  • Top with remaining enchilada sauce. Cook for 30 minutes.
  • Top with cheese and cook another 15 minutes.
  • I like to serve mine with some shredded lettuce and tomato.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. The manicotti shells were cooked perfectly and the filling was flavorful. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
