Manicotti

Here's a family favorite that's very simple and quick to prepare (although it does cook for an hour in the oven). All my kids are happy when they know it's manicotti night.

Ingredients
1 box manicotti noodles
3 C cottage cheese
1/4 C grated parmesan cheese
8 oz grated mozzarella cheese (2 C grated)
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp dry parsley (or 2 TB chopped fresh)
pinch of pepper
16 oz jar spaghetti sauce

Boil water in a large pan and cook the noodles for 6 minutes. While the noodles are cooking, mix all the other ingredients (except the spaghetti sauce) in a large mixing bowl. Drain the noodles and let them cool off a bit. Stuff the noodles with the cheese mixture and place in a 9x13 baking pan. Pour the spaghetti sauce on top and cover with tin foil. Bake for 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Remove the tin foil and cook for 15 minutes more.
