Italian Stuffed Pasta Tubes
This Italian stuffed pasta tubes recipe is one I created after tasting something similar at a local restaurant. The stuffed pasta tubes freeze well, allowing dinner to be ready faster. I generally make my pasta tubes and spaghetti sauce from scratch, but to shorten preparation time, manicotti tubes and jarred spaghetti sauce will work, too.
