This recipe is a good starting point, but I would make a few changes next time. I would use a different type of cheese in the filling and I would also add some more herbs.

Overall, I thought this dish was just average. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I would have liked more sauce with this dish. The cannelloni were a bit dry.

This recipe is a bit too complicated for me. I'll stick to simpler dishes.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cannelloni turned out mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I thought this dish was just okay. The cannelloni were a bit dry and the filling was bland.

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

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I also added some chopped mushrooms to the filling for extra flavor.
