Three Cheese Manicotti

Three Cheese Manicotti
1 (8oz) package manicotti pasta
16 oz ricotta cheese
6 oz shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
6 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/3 cup dried bread crumbs, seasoned
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups spaghetti sauce

Preheat oven to 350ºF.  Bring large pot of lightly salted water to a boil and add pasta and cook for 8-10 minutes or until al dente.  Drain. 

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 4 oz mozzarella cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, sour cream, bread crumbs, parsley (I put it through my food processor to make it into really small specks) and salt and pepper to taste; mix well.

In a 9x13 baking dish, spray dish with cooking spray and cover bottom with thin film of spaghetti sauce.

Fill each manicotti with cheese mixture and place in dish; cover with remaining sauce.  Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese on top of sauce. 

Bake in preheated oven uncovered for 40 minutes; serve.
