This is a great dish. My family loves it and its a little bit of a twist on your traditional manicotti!!

---

Steps

---

Sauce: brown the meat in a skillet with your italian seasonings and garlic salt , drain when done to get fat off.

---

Heat sausage up so that you can cut it into little peices , it will cook the rest of the way when in the oven.

---

Combine your pasta sauce , meat , and sausage and mix together over low heat.

---

While making your filling start boiling your manicotti noodles.

---

Follow directions on box to go about boiling the noodles.

---

Filling: mix ricotta , 1 and 1 / 2 cups mozarella , some of the parmesean , sugar , and chopped parsley in a large mixing bowl.

---

Add in some dried basil.

---

Take a gallon size ziplock baggy and put the filling inside.

---

Cut a hole in bottom corner so you can squeeze filling out.

---

Layer some of your pasta sauce across the bottom of the pan so the noodles do not stick to pan and because theres no such thing as too much sauce !.

---

Take your noodles and your ziplock and fill noodles full of filling.

---

When all noodles are filled and aligned in your casserole pan pour rem.
