Guest Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 pasta tuces, like/same as canneloni...stuff it with anything you want and serve with a ragu/napoletana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compassionategirl Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) Well, the tofu in the manicotti doesnt taste anything like Ricotta. It just tastes like tofu. Too bad I know. I dont think there are any vegan "ricottas" out there. AT least none that I have ever seen. if there is, somebody let me know.

sinisterkungfu Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 post it. Well will you make it if I post it? Basically it is just tofu mixed with veggies and herbs stuffed in the manicotti tubes baked over tomato sauce. Absolutely. I'm all about trying some new recipes. I've never been able to make tofu that can pass as a decent Ricotta substitute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have no patience whatsoever for it. Quit stalling and post the recipe before we stop believing that you really ate Manicotti. Eating beans from a can with a fork while looking at a picture of, or thinking of Manicotti doesnt count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect it would taste anything like it though. I love me some Italian food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 use tofeta as a ricotta substitute, although i'm kinda over everyone havin "ricotta" in their cannaloni.just throw in some capers, sundried tomatoes, a stem of rosemary, olive oil and something to fill it out, could be sweet potato/whole grain bread crumbs/wild rice/cou cous......some NY pepper(since everyone on here seems to be poor) a pinch of salt ... maybe a lil oregano and garlic. save the basil for the sauce.

compassionategirl Posted December 29, 2005 Author Share Posted December 29, 2005 i dont think I can get tofuta in Toronto - never seen it before and I am always scouring the "dairy" section. Anyway, I have decided to take a few days and perfect this recipe Sinister, Ash and Alex so you arent all left disappointed. It was good, but I am going to tweak it a bit. and all for you Sinister. So, be patient and check back in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offense74 Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 Eating beans from a can with a fork while looking at a picture of, or thinking of Manicotti doesnt count. Exactly. A can of beans and a wet dream is not Manicotti no matter how hard you try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
