Fired up the tiny grill to handle the cheesy meatballs and pork chops....
Tossed some smallish pork chops on the grill, too.
Also had a skillet of baby carrots & Brussels cooked & then drizzled with the balsamic reduction glaze.

I can't compete with y'all tonight
My wife's boss took her and the other work ladies out to Longhorns for suppa. She bought me some Boom Boom Shrimp. They got gone quick!

Manicotti lasagna turned out purty good...as did the meatballs.
Everyone liked the hopped up Ragu sauce....bigly. So easy.....big old jar + onions + basil + Italian seasoning + maters and some time to simmer.

Very true.
I've made it from scratch a number of times. I just didn't have the maters and herbs on hand. Saw the big jar that either my wife or one of the kids had bought.....looked into the freezer.....and knew I had ground chuck that I'd intended to make burgers with....hit the store for the manicotti and some other stuff she wanted. In & out.

Bro..that was off the chain goot look'n eats.
Thank you.
I'm afraid I overdid the balsamic reduction sauce on the shrooms & chops.
The baked ravioli is insanely simple and she liked it more than the fried version from Olive Garden. Spread 'em out on a baking sheet...heck, they weren't even all the way thawed. Sprayed some olive oil on them and dusted with Italian seasoning & grated parmesan and cooked 'em in the oven for a few minutes.
Great appetizer or football watching food. So easy even this Sasquatch can do it.
Skillet Brussels were even easier.
The only work was when I thought I'd be able to stuff the manicotti....and grew frustrated really quick and improvised.
Meatballs were simple....meat, eggs, cheese, seasoned bread crumbs and fire.
Froze the leftovers for future meals at work.

Easy way to stuff the shells. Put the cheese mixture in a baggie and cut the bottom corner of baggie off and squeeze it in the shells.Thank you.

You nailed it.
Yep.....that was my method used....but I fumbled my way into a pure-t mess.
I was following this hombre's video:
Looking back on it...methinks that I should've used a thinner gauge baggie...and cut a smaller piece of corner off'n it.
As it was...I had a dang freezer bag with a larger cut off corner. The ricotta-mozzarella-egg-seasoning mix was being squoze outa there with too much force/pressure/volume/speed. That...combined with my music selection had me going at it too fast.
Next time I'm rolling with Steely Dan and allowing more time.
Gotta remember to buy some cheap thin gauge baggies next time I'm in a store.
