If you are craving something savory and can't choose between something deep fried or spinach and ricotta cannelloni, Nick Chipman of the DudeFoods blog has a solution for you. His deep fried stuffed cannelloni can be replicated at home if you, too, have a deep fryer.
The stuffed noodles are otherwise pretty healthy, as they contain ricotta, which is a lower fat cheese, and spinach, a great dark green vegetable. A different dish entirely than a bean-based cannellini or cannoli dessert, the spinach and ricotta cannelloni is for those looking to branch out with their Italian cuisine. Described as "sort of like an amped up awesome version of mozzarella sticks," the deep fried dish is easily customizable.
