- Place another single layer of pasta sheets over provolone; layer evenly with ½ of the Alfredo cream and remaining pumpkin mixture.
- Add another layer of pasta and remaining ricotta mixture; arrange remaining pasta sheets over ricotta.
- Spread pasta sheets evenly with remaining Alfredo cream; top evenly with remaining provolone slices.
- Bake in preheated oven until very hot and cheese is dark golden-brown (35-45 min.).
- Remove from oven; cool in pan for at least 15 min. before slicing.
Tasty Tips:
- To evenly spread the thick, sticky pumpkin and ricotta mixtures without making a mess, drop even spoonfuls over the previous layer; use a fork or the back of a spoon to press down and gently distribute the fillings from edge to edge.
- If your pan won't accommodate all the lasagna noodles in the package, save some for another use.
