MMMMM-------------------STUFFING FOR MANICOTTI------------------------
    3/4 c  Ricotta cheese
    3/4 lb Mozarella cheese, diced

        Place flour on a pastry board and make a well in the center.
  Break the eggs into the well and add the water, a little at a time,
  and the salt. Knead for about 10 minutes.  Let stand, covered, for
  about 1 hour. Cut dough into 4 pieces and roll as thin as you can.
  Cut into rectangles 4 inches wide by 6 inches long.  Place between
  pieces of waxed paper. You should have about 12 pieces.  Cook, half
  at a time, in 4 quarts salted boiling water with olive oul added.
  Cook for 5 minutes. Drain and place between 2 towels.
  
        Divide stuffing into 12 parts.  Place a mound of stuffing on
  each dough rectangle about 1/3 inch from a long edge.  Mound should
  be about 1/2 inch thick and 1/2 inch wide.  Fold dough over twice.
  Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce on the bottom of a baking pan.
  Arrange manicotti about 1/4 inch apart in the pan and spoon the rest
  of the sauce over the top. Sprinkle a teaspoon of Parmesan cheese
  over each of the manicotti. Bake in a preheated slow (300 F) oven for
  15 to 20 minutes. Drain the ricotta cheese.  Combine all of the
  ingredients and mix well.
