Hi again, Since manicotti was mentioned here, I believe I have a couple of recipes if anyone would like them. I also stuff the uncooked manicotti with filling and find it easier.

It is kind of a judgement thing. The jars ar 32 ounce or sometimes 28 now, and when yu are using mushroom soup they are cans and I don't like to dilute it much. I just feels a little bit liquidy on top when you first do it and the absorbing into the noodles overnight is taking the place of boiling them. When I bake it somehow it has always come out wonderful. I have even added a bit of water at baking time if dry noodles are exposed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jan" <zarf2...@verizon.net> To: <cookinginthedark@acbradio.org> Sent: Monday, January 30, 2012 4:54 PM Subject: Re: [CnD] lasagna >A cup of water besides the 32 ounces sauce?
