I used it last time to make lasanga and left out the noodles completely. I layered the cooked squash, sauce and cheese. The whole family enjoyed it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1271053 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 07:55:22 +0000 looch 1271053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: let us know, because I am always looking for new ways to introduce foods to my son. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1270299 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 18:10:58 +0000 Andrea 1270299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Woohoo, lasagna!</p> <p>What about the butternut squash lasagna?</p> <p><a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2013/10/30/fall-favorite-butternut-squash-lasagna/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2013/10/30/fall-favorite-butternut-squash-lasagna/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1270003 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:36:14 +0000 mrs. wagon 1270003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: yayyy!!! that opens up a whole realm of foods!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1270000 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:35:18 +0000 mrbee 1270000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: @Shutterbug: @looch: </p> <p>Yah what I'm making isn't technically lasagna any more. I just don't know enough about pasta to refer to it properly! If the kids eat it tonight, I'll find it out... otherwise I will stop baking pastas for them!</p> <p>@mrs. wagon: He slowly warmed up to pizza, and has been eating it pretty well for the past six months or so! So I thought we'd try lasagna, which has a lot of similarities to pizza!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269996 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:34:17 +0000 Mamasig 1269996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just want to say this is one of my favorite recipes! Always comes out delicious! I've heard running the no boil noodles under hot water before layering helps too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269958 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:17:10 +0000 mrs. wagon 1269958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Charlie ate the tomato sauce??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269943 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:10:17 +0000 looch 1269943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lasagne has to have layers, otherwise it is just baked whatever.</p> <p>You can so pre boil the no cook noodles, makes then very soft. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269938 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 16:08:34 +0000 Shutterbug 1269938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: haha that's what I was thinking... this isn't lasagna anymore, now it's baked ziti (well, rotini)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269678 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:40:33 +0000 cascademom 1269678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: Yep, my aunt makes a lasagna casserole. I'd have to find her original recipe, but it's really good. This is something similar: </p> <p><a href="http://lacucinadilauren.blogspot.com/2009/03/lasagna-casserole.html" rel="nofollow">http://lacucinadilauren.blogspot.com/2009/03/lasagna-casserole.html</a></p> <p>I make a turkey-zucchini lasagna that my family loves:<br /> <a href="http://www.skinnytaste.com/2009/02/zucchini-lasagna.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.skinnytaste.com/2009/02/zucchini-lasagna.html</a><br /> <a href="http://theroadtodomestication.com/2013/09/24/zucchini-lasagna/" rel="nofollow">http://theroadtodomestication.com/2013/09/24/zucchini-lasagna/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269674 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:39:06 +0000 jedeve 1269674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like might like a baked ziti! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269662 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:35:29 +0000 autumnlove 1269662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I made it with turkey and it was delicious! I think swapping is ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269656 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:33:16 +0000 mrsjazz 1269656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I make bowtie lasagna all the time using this recipe, just made it last night: <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/07/16-minute-meal-2-bowtie-lasagna/" rel="nofollow">http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/07/16-minute-meal-2-bowtie-lasagna/</a></p> <p>I think you will be fine substituting. You can use your recipe but follow Ree's directions, basically what you said, just mixing everything in one big pot after the meat and noodles are cooked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/making-lasagna-without-lasagna-noodles#post-1269634 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 14:27:12 +0000 mrbee 1269634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Made this recipe last week, from a rec from Andrea!<br /> <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/neelys/mamas-lasagna-recipe/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/neelys/mamas-lasagna-recipe/index.html</a></p> <p>The kids ate it pretty well! But I noticed that they struggled with the lasagna pasta... they tend to eat the corkscrew rotini a lot better. So tonight, I'm gonna try the recipe again but this time with rotini instead of lasagna pasta.</p> <p>Usually I use oven-ready lasagna, but this time I plan to cook and drain the rotini and use that instead. And also, instead of having multiple layers of lasagna... I think I'll just mix everything together in one big layer.</p> <p>My question for you guys: can you just swap out pasta types like this? Any advice for this inexperienced cook? Thanks!! </p>
