A Quick and Easy Skillet Lasagna Recipe!

This is likely to quick become a new family favorite! It's unbelievably easy to make yet the finished result is undeniably impressive for something so simple.

You get all the flavors of a traditional lasagna with a fraction of the effort. None of that tedious pre-cooking and repetitive layering. And huge bonus - there's not tons of extra dishes!

Homemade Manicotti

Manicotti is an Italian dish similar in flavor to cheese stuffed shells or lasagna.

Large tube pasta are boiled until al dente then a filling of ricotta, mozzarella and sometimes spinach is stuffed inside. Usually it's meatless but it can include ground beef, pork, or veal as well.

The filled manicotti shells are layered into a baking dish and covered with marinara sauce. Sometimes you'll see them finished with more cheese over the top, but believe it or not, I think with the super cheesy filling alone it's plenty without.

This mostly from scratch dish is total comfort food!

This recipe has been a family favorite for nearly 20 years! I began making these as a teen and haven't stopped since.

Try them and you'll see why, so much cheesy, tomatoey deliciousness in every bite!
