Although the price is $10.62, there was plenty left for Ted and I to take for lunch tomorrow. If you are feeding 3 or less, I would freeze 1/2 of the manicotti before you bake it.
KID TEST: 2 out of 3. Lily and Ethan loved it. Taylor ate it, but was not crazy about the spinach. But at the McWilliams there are 2 choices for dinner.....Take it or Leave it. He ate it :)
Ted indeed brought it in for lunch the next day and it smelled delicious!
