Instructions
In a large saucepan, saute onion and green pepper in olive oil until tender.
Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in all remaining sauce ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Uncover, simmer 10-15 minutes longer or until thickened.
Meanwhile, for manicotti, cook beef and onion in a skillet until the meat is no longer pink.

Mix well. Refrigerate 1-1/2 cups of the sauce (makes 4 cups)
Pour 1 cup of the remaining sauce into a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Stuff manicotti with the meat mixture; arrange over the sauce.
Pour another 1-1/2 cups of sauce on top.
Sprinkle with the mozzarella and remaining Parmesan cheese.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°.
