Beef & Cheese Manicotti

Directions

Cook and stir the ground beef and the first ¼ cup of onion in a large skillet until the meat is beginning to brown. Drain any accumulated or excess fat.

Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients for the meat filling.

Fill the uncooked manicotti shells, packing the filling into both ends, arranging the packed shells in an ungreased 13 x 9 inch baking dish .

Heat the oven to 375℉ (190℃).

In a large pot, heat the undrained mushrooms and the remaining ingredients for the tomato sauce except for the Parmesan cheese to boiling, stirring occasionally.

Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 5 minutes.

Pour the sauce over the filled shells.

Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake until the shells are tender, 1½ to 1¾ hours.

Sprinkle with the cheese and cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
