Cover with a layer of lasagna noodles, placed lengthwise side by side. Spread another third of the filling over the noodles, and top with 3/4 cup of Bechamel. Top with another layer of pasta, the remaining filling, and another 3/4 cup of Bechamel. Cover with a final layer of noodles and all the remaining Bechamel.
