LC Steak Umm's Manocotti and Lasagna









Preheat oven to 375o
Filling
1 small container of Whole Milk Ricotta
1 cup shredded whole milk mozzarelal (plus extra for topping)
1/2 beaten egg
1 package of Splenda (or two pinches of sugar)
pinch of parsley
Mix together
4 sleeves of Steak Umms
1 cup of sauce (I use Hunt's no sugar)
You are going to take one steak umm and put it on another leaving the paper on bottom of that.. Repeat with 2nd steak umm...

Microwave in 10 second intervals until slightly defrosted..
(If you cook any longer the steak umm will fall to pieces)
Take 1/2 the cheese mixture and fill length wise (pic above). Roll into manocotti shape.
Top with sauce and extra mozerella
Bake for 30 minutes.
* This recipe will less firm then regular manocotti due to the steak umms but you will not miss the noodles at all..
enjoy.

Same idea but in Lasagna!!
