Christmas Eve Manicotti
My mother is full-blooded Sicilian and always makes Christmas Italian food. We celebrated the Vigil and had seven fish dishes. Since my children were not fans of anything more than shrimp, I made Christmas Eve manicotti to replace the squid and octopus they didn't like. The crêpes, fluffy cheese, and spinach filling will also satisfy vegetarians.
