Friday food day and Disneyland pics

First, the recipe:
Baked Manicotti

2 cups spaghetti sauce
1 egg lightly beaten
1 3/4 cup cottage cheese
1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
(I usually don't put in this much cheese--I just do what looks good and what I've got on hand at the time:)
12 manicotti shells, cooked, rinsed in cold water--it also works well (sometimes better) with those giant shell pasta things.

Preheat oven to 350. Spread 3/4 cup of the spaghetti sauce on the bottom of 13x9 in baking dish. Mix egg, cheeses until well blended. Spoon cheese mixture into large resealable bag. Using scissors, cut off a small hole from one of the bottom corners of the bag.

Fill manicotti shells one at a time, squeezing cheese mixture into both sides of each shell.
(OK, this is NOT as easy as it sounds. I usually end up using a spoon and breaking every single shell) Place manicotti over sauce in dish. Pour remaining 1 1/4 cups spaghetti sauce over manicotti. Cover with foil.

Bake 40 min or until heated through.

Makes 6 servings. 2 manicotti each!

Now, for some pictures of our day "out of the office"



Chris' head was cut off, so I thought I'd do it over.





And I didn't know if you could properly see that I had a glowing baseball hat bestowed upon me ;)
