Easy Sausage Manicotti Bake

This easy sausage manicotti bake is everything you love about slow-cooked Italian comfort food, but made convenient and fast enough for a weeknight supper using jarred Alfredo and marinara sauces, pre-cooked Italian chicken sausage, and string cheese.

How to Make It

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fill each pasta shell with half of a sausage link and arrange in a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. Pour Alfredo sauce evenly over pasta shells. Place a half of a string cheese on top, between each pasta piece. Top evenly with marinara. Add 2/3 cup water to the marinara jar and shake well. Pour water around the edges of the dish. Top with shredded mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover with foil.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until golden around the edges and bubbly all over, about 1 hour, uncovering during the last 25 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.
