Stuffed Manicotti

This is another recipe that can be very diverse.  Again, Be Creative!!

1-2 lbs browned hamburger beef
1-2 pkgs manicotti pasta
1 large pkg mozarella cheese
2 cans Hunt's spaghetti sauce
1 tub sour cream
All purpose seasoning
Salt and pepper
Oregano seasoning
Garlic salt

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.  Brown hamburger meat in a skillet adding all seasonings to desired taste.  Set aside.  Boil manicotti pasta.  Do not overcook!!  You want them to be on the harder side, so they don't rip when you are trying to stuff them.  Cook no more than 5-6 minutes.  Grease glass baking dish and set aside.  Remove pasta one at a time with rubber tongs, place in baking dish and set aside.  In a mixing bowl, combine meat, sour cream and some mozarella.  The meat should have a light white tint and not too much cheese.  Again, this can be to your liking.  Stuff each manicotti piece and place accordingly in baking dish.  Cover all pieces thoroughly with spaghetti sauce.  Bake for 20 minutes.  Cover with mozarella cheese and bake again until cheese is melted.  Enjoy!!!!
