I made it this way then I made it with sweet potatoes and rosemary instead of spinach and nutmeg and it was delicious as well.
This dish had a very rich flavour. The recipe was very straight forward and easy to make for a beginner cook.
We are unsure about whether or not to cover the dish in the oven. The box that the cannelloni came in says to cover for 45 minutes. We ended up pre-cooking for 2 minutes, uncovering for 15 minutes (until we read the cannelloni box), covering for 20 minutes and then uncovering for an additional 10 minutes.
I made this with home-made pasta and used frozen spinach, but didn't change anything else. It was delicious! There was a perfect amount of sauce and the cook time was right on. I baked it uncovered.
