Yes, you can substitute cream cheese for ricotta in lasagna, but the texture and flavor will be different. Cream cheese is richer and denser than ricotta, so the lasagna may be creamier and have a tangier taste.
You can substitute cottage cheese or a mixture of cream cheese and Greek yogurt for ricotta cheese in lasagna.

You can substitute ricotta cheese for cottage cheese. I don't think it would work with cream cheese.
No. Plain yogurt is a good substitute for sour cream. A substitute for ricotta cheese is cottage cheese that has been drained of excess water (use cheese cloth or seive).
full fat ricotta or cream cheese does the job.
No, you don't You can also use sour cream or cottage cheese also.
Can be and is also substituted in lasgne. I'm not a fan of ricotta myself though
Milk & slice / bulk cheese freezes well, sour cream doesn't. The first two are fine taste & consistency-wise, sour cream was way off on both bases. IMHO I wouldn't think ricotta / cottage cheese would freeze well bc of this. Looks like its time to make lasagna for you!
You can but it would have a different texture. You would be better off using cream cheese or mascarpone.
Id depends on what your intended use is for the ricotta as to whether cream cheese may be substituted. In general i would say no because the two cheese while both being soft and white are very different in their textures and uses in food preparation and cooking. sometimes mascarpone and cream cheese are interchangeable but i would insist on using ricotta when a recipe requires it.
I would say no. Mascarpone is sweet and creamy whereas ricotta is drier and bland. I would recommend you use a cream cheese (like Philadelphia) instead. You can use 8oz of Cream Cheese, 1/4 cup of Heavy whipping cream and 2 1/2 tbsp of Sour Cream and whip it together... This is VERY similar...! Just don't substitute anything in this mixture, and you should be set! Ricotta cheese is similar to cottage cheese. They can be substituted. It is also easy to make ricotta; whole milk, heavy cream, salt and white vinegar. dairy curdles. Mascarpone is similar to cream cheese just sweeter. It is used in desserts, where as the cream cheese usage would require more sugar.
