Mini-Cotti


My favorite part about making lasagna or manicotti is eating the broken noodles with the left over goodies in the bowl. When I was growing up I would always take a piece of noodle and plop a little of the cheese filling and a drop of sauce on top. This is still my favorite part of cooking. No wonder I am never hungry when the food is ready. Steven used to laugh at me, until I gave him bite size pieces of the not quite finished meal. Delish! I made manicotti tonight. Here is a picture of my mini-cottis. (I also do this with pasta...I just like to pick rather than eat a huge meal.) Plus, I can't just throw the yummy stuff away just because it didn't get in the pan! I think I just really like the combo of warm noodles, cold cheese mixture and warm sauce...YUM!
