Yes,you can.Just make the pasta like you normally would,then add a jar of sauce to the cooked pasta and mix everything together. In a separate bowl,mix 2 eggs,a 15 ounce container of ricotta cheese 16 ounces shredded mozzarella,salt, pepper, grated cheese and another jar of pasta sauce.Then add your pasta of choice with sauce.Place it in a casserole top with more sauce and bake at 350 for about 40 minutes or until heated all the way through.This is the way I make my baked ziti and it`s always a hit!

Sure you can. All you're doing is changing the name of the pasta in the dish. Instead of Lasagne call it Rigatoni al Forno. Layer it together just like lasagne, bake and enjoy. I change out the pastas all of the time. Shells, rigatoni, ziti, egg noodles all work well. It'll be a pretty painless experiment and tasty too.

yes you can. If you still want the pasta in it use cooked spaghetti. Mix a raw egg into the pasta and make a thin layer on the bottom. Add as many layers as you want. Bake as usual. And TA DA lasagna without the noodles.

Well, it won't be the "same" as using a flat noodle like lasagna, but it will still taste good. Just layer it with whatever pasta you have. It will be a pasta bake, instead of lasagna. Enjoy.

You can make 'lasagna-style' or 'pasta bake', using whatever you have.
It will not be "lasagna", just lasagna-style, to a purist, however..
The good thing with pastas is you can pretty much replace any of them with something else.
(BUT, I don't recommend traditional wide lasagna noodles in a 'spaghetti' dish - that doesn't work so well!!)

Yes, it won't hold like long lasagna noodles will, but your layered pasta will turn out OK.

You cannot make lasagna without the noodles...it will just be whatever noodles you are using,like rigatoni ,it will be all mixed up and just be rigatoni's! Sorry you will have to bug a neighbor or go to the store!! And don't use the pre-cooked ones they suck!!

Go to the store and buy a box of lasagna noodles!

No, it will then be called goulash! LOL But, it should still be a pretty tasty casserole. Just try layering it as you would a lasagna. I never met a pasta I didn't like! Good luck!!

It would just be a pasta casserole with too much ricotta, but it definitely wouldn't be lasagna. If it's not too late, I would just recommend making another pasta dish. In any case, I'm sure it will taste good.
