Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º F.

In a large bowl, combine ricotta, spinach, onion and egg. Season with parsley, pepper and garlic powder. Mix in 1 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan. In a separate bowl, stir together spaghetti sauce and water.

Spread 1 cup sauce in the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Stuff uncooked manicotti shells with ricotta mixture (a cookie press, or resealable plastic bake works well for stuffing shells) and arrange in a single layer in the dish. Cover with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
