This recipe was a disaster. The manicotti shells were mushy and the filling was runny.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my manicotti turned out dry and bland. I think I might have overcooked them.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this dish. The cheese and sauce helped to balance out the flavor of the spinach.

This recipe was easy to follow and the manicotti turned out beautifully. I served them with a side of marinara sauce and they were a big hit.

The manicotti were a little bland for my taste, but the sauce was very good. I would add more spices to the filling next time.

I substituted ricotta cheese for the cottage cheese and it turned out great! The manicotti were delicious and everyone at the table enjoyed them.
