Manicotti with Cheese

14 pieces (8 oz) Manicotti pasta
1 3/4 cups Ricotta Cheese
2 cups shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 tsp. Black Pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
2 Tbsp. chopped Parsley
1/2 tsp. salt
1 28oz. jar Spaghetti Sauce (with meat or sausage)**

* Cook pasta according to package directions; drain. Cool in a single layer on foil. Heat oven to 350. In large bowl, stir together cheeses, parsley, salt and pepper. Spoon (or pipe, using a plastic bag and cut one corner off) into cooled pasta tubes. Spread a thick layer of sauce on bottom of baking dish. Arrange filled pasta in single layer over sauce. Pour remaining sauce over pasta. Cover with foil and bake 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake 15 min. longer.

**I have also substituted Alfredo sauce (or another jarred white Italian type sauce) and added cubed or shredded chicken instead of the spaghetti sauce.
