I have made this or similar recipes from Cooks Illustrated in the summer to take for our family's week at the beach. You use lasagna no-boil noodles rather than boxed manicotti noodles which are easier to use and are more tender when cooked. The manicotti can be prepared but not cooked and covered with a sheet of parchment paper, wrapped in aluminum foil, and refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month. I freeze mine in a disposable lasagna pan several days before beach time. On the morning of departure, the frozen pan is put in the ice chest for the long trip to the beach. It is partially defrosted by the time we are in our rented house and ready for dinner. I follow the cooking directions but may have to add extra oven time depending on defrosted the maniccoti was. This is just one of several ahead of times frozen dishes that I take for the first night. We have a large group for our family beach week so food is never wased.
