- 1/2 pumpkin large peeled diced

- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 4 spring onions sliced
- 275 g frozen spinach thawed
- 400g tomato pasta sauce

- 1 tsp salt and pepper *to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350F.

- Grease a casserole dish or deep baking tray and place a layer of lasagna sheets on the base. Spoon over a layer of the cheese mixture, then a layer of mashed pumpkin, smoothing each layer.
- Top with more lasagna sheets and then repeat the process until all mixture is used up, ending with a layer of lasagna sheets on top.
