Mexican Manicotti
This Healthy Twist on Manicotti will make your taste buds happy!

Ingredients

1 pound lean ground turkey
16 ounces fat free refried beans 1 can, (We used green chile and lime)
1.5 ounces taco seasoning mix
16 ounces whole wheat manicotti shells uncooked
12 ounces green taco sauce 1 bottle
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
3 green onions diced
6 ounces sliced olives 1 can
2 tomatoes diced
1 cup shredded lettuce

Instructions

Brown ground turkey and drain. Mix cooked ground turkey with beans and taco seasoning.
Stuff mixture into uncooked shells. I use a plastic baggie with a cut corner. Then squeeze the mixture in both sides of the Manicotti shell. You could also spoon it in on each side with a very small spoon that will fit into the Manicotti shell.
Lay stuffed shells into a 9 X 13 inch pan.
Mix the green taco sauce with about 3/4 bottle of water. (Use the bottle the sauce came in.) Pour sauce over Manicotti, cover with foil, and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with cheese. Put back in oven until cheese is melted without the foil this time.
Garnish with green onions, olives, tomatoes, and chopped lettuce.

Notes
We like to serve this with a green salad and garlic bread.
