Verdict:

 This meal was ok. Nothing great, nothing awful.. just a usual pasta dish. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the string cheese.. it didnt' melt much and just wasn't what I was expecting. We each had 2 manicotti and were full. I don't know that I liked this meal enough to want to cook it again.
