Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cook pasta until al dente; drain and rinse under cold water. Brown meat, onion and garlic in a skillet. Drain off fat.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Filling can also fill 8 manicotti shells. Occasionally, I will par-boil 4 lasagna noodles and cut them in half, add filling and roll up the noodles. Makes life a bit easier. This recipe is from Ragu back in the 1970's.
