Spinach Pesto Manicotti

Ingredients
  • 8 oz uncooked manicotti
  • 1 lb MorningStar Farms veggie crumbles
  • 1 box (9 oz) frozen spinach, thawed, squeezed to drain and chopped
  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1/2 cup pesto
  • 1 egg
  • 1 jar (26 to 28 oz) tomato pasta sauce
Directions
  1. Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cook manicotti to desired doneness as directed on package. Drain; rinse with cold water to cool. Drain well.
  2. Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine ground veggie crumbles, spinach, cheese, pesto and egg. If desired, add salt and pepper; mix well. For easier stuffing, place mixture in resealable freezer plastic bag; seal bag. Cut about 1-inch hole in bottom corner of bag.
  3. Fill each manicotti by squeezing mixture into manicotti; place in sprayed baking dish. Pour pasta sauce over manicotti. Cover with foil.
  4. Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until filling is warmed throughout.
