Two Cheese Crab Manicotti

In a large pot add water and bring it to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for 8-10 minutes (noodles need to be tender).

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

When they are done, remove the pasta pot from the heat and drain the noodles and run cold water over them so that they are easy to handle.

In a large bowl combine ricotta, mozzarella, crab, salt, pepper, parsley and panko crumbs. Stir the mixture so that everything is well blended.

Grab one manicotti noodle at a time and start stuffing the mixture down the middle of the noodle.

Pack the noodle pretty good and you can even have some of the stuffing coming out.

In a large casserole dish pour some of the tomato sauce on the bottom so that’s is well covered.

Lay the noodles down and top with the remaining tomato sauce all over the noodles. Add more sauce if the noodles are not well covered. The manicotti may tend to dry out if its not covered in the sauce.

Cook for a total of 30 minutes and in the last 10 minutes remove it from the oven, top with the Parmesan cheese and place back in oven.
