Recipe Description
I made this Manicotti in my slow cooker. I used three cheeses for the filling, but you could use just about anything to fill it with. I opted for the meat free because it is Friday and Lent after all.
I also did not cook my noodles before I filled them. That is a trick I learned from a very dear friend. If you do opt to not cook your noodles you need to make sure they are surrounded by sauce, and I do mean surrounded. If you miss any area it will get crunch and no one wants a crunchy Manicotti.
