Baked Cheese Manicotti is a Italian main course recipe that takes about 45 min from start to finish and serves 6. It calls for 10 ingredients across 12 steps, and is rated medium. A serving works out at around 441 kcal with roughly 28 g of protein. Filed under lacto ovo vegetarian, vegetarian, high-protein and weeknight dinner.
Grease a 9" x 13" baking pan with 1 tablespoon butter. Spread 1/2 cup of the marinara sauce across the bottom of the pan and set it aside.
Bring a 6-quart pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
Transfer the sautéed garlic to a medium bowl, then add the ricotta, 1/2 cup parmesan, 5 tablespoons chopped parsley, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and eggs. Stir everything together until well combined.
Spoon some of this filling into both openings of each manicotti shell. If you prefer, transfer the ricotta mixture to a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag, snip off a bottom corner, and pipe the filling into the pasta. Repeat with all remaining manicotti shells.
