The only thing I would suggest to those who have never tried making lasagna without boiling them first (the regular noodles) is to make sure that all the noodles edges are covered with sauce. Otherwise, the uncooked noodles edges sticking out will get hard and crusty. Trust me on this one LOL<br /><br />I would think the same would work for manicotti noodles too, just hate to suggest it and have it not work for someone :-pAmandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16967409222170903614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5664439679499187185.post-88345714860458783272009-11-23T09:29:18.714-06:002009-11-23T09:29:18.714-06:00Amanda, HoneyB, whoever else wants to know, I have made lasagna for years and I always use the regular noodles (not the no-boil ones) and I never boil them first. Just layer on like regular lasagna. The noodles always cook all the way. I hate taking the step of boiling the noodles first. Just an FYI, you should try it sometime. Although with the no-boil noodles readily available, I do buy those when I can. I just like the shape and their thinness a little better. <br />I haven&#39;t tried manicotti shells (not boiling at all first), but now I&#39;m totally wondering if that would work. Maybe the cook time isn&#39;t quite long enough for those. Hmmm?<br />Anyway,<br />Amanda, the dish certainly looks de-lish. One of my favorite meals is lasagna (and the like). And now I know what I want for dinner. But I may just have to go get some shells and try it.<br />And I&#39;m rambling, but great post, Amanda.Katrinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17194870993492545810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5664439679499187185.post-73335920927506993642009-11-23T07:03:31.803-06:002009-11-23T07:03:31.803-06:00Looks wonderful Amanda and what a great idea!

I&#39;ve made lasagna roll-ups before so know this isn&#39;t that difficult though I haven&#39;t seen the soft no bake kind. What brand did you use? I&#39;m going to keep my eyes open for some. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

I am thinking you could roll up the cheese and prosciutto and &quot;insert&quot; it into the manicotti shell. Even if you only partially boil the shells, they will finish cooking in the oven while in the sauce :) <br /><br />Thank you Rebecca :)Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16967409222170903614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5664439679499187185.post-59927027007033766932009-11-22T15:46:24.134-06:002009-11-22T15:46:24.134-06:00wow this looks mouth watering great jobChow and Chatterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04225995063075911644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5664439679499187185.post-16161249933007287882009-11-22T15:21:45.169-06:002009-11-22T15:21:45.169-06:00Such a simple and meticulous way of doing it!
