Easy to Suff Manicotti

1 package (8 ounces) manicotti shells
1 pound ground beef
½ cup chopped onion
1 jar (26 ounces) spaghetti sauce
14 pieces string cheese
1 ½ cups (6 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese

Cook manicotti according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the spaghetti sauce. Spread half of the sauce into a greased 13x9 baking dish.
Drain manicotti; stuff each shell with a piece of string cheese. Place over meat sauce; top with remaining sauce. Cover and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake, uncovered, for 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Makes 6-8 servings.

--This is a favorite recipe, it is really quick if you just use bottled spaghetti sauce that has meat in it, then skip cooking the hamburger— It is a very quick fix on a busy night.

Okay, this one sounds super easy and yummy. I'm going to have to try it. Also I've had your salsa and I'm glad to see the recipe here since I keep forgetting to have you email it to me. :) Recipe blogs are really fun and I love mine because I needed a way to get my recipes more organized...and it's working (slowly but surely)!
