This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have some leftover chicken in my fridge, and this is a great way to turn it into a delicious meal.

The manicotti shells were a little too thick for my taste. I think I'll try using a different brand next time.

I thought the chicken manicotti was a little bland. I added some extra garlic and Italian seasoning to the filling, and it was much better.
