Directions: |
Directions:Once the chicken breast has been cooked thoroughly, allow it to cool and dice into 1/2 inch pieces in a large mixing bowl. Add spinach, tomatoes, ricotta, mozzarella, pepper and salt and mix. Arrange the precooked pasta and spoon in 2 - 3 tablespoons of filling down the center of each pasta sheet or manicotti noodle. If you use pasta sheets, roll the filling up with a cigar. Put a little bit of the mixed up sauces at the bottom of the baking dish before arranging the cannelloni, side by side, into an ovenproof shallow baking dish. Mix the alfredo and pasta sauce together completely in another large bowl and pour over cannelloni to cover. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the top of sauce. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for approximately 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove foil and bake an additional 20 minutes. |
