Autumnomia

Lasagna for the people.

1. pumpkin
2. onion
3. garlic
4. shiitake (or other) mushrooms
5. spinach (or arugula, if you self-identify as an elitist)
6. silken tofu
7. tomatoes (canned works fine, preferably whole) + sauce or paste
8. lasagna noodles

halve and seed 1, roast, also roast the seeds (season to taste, I recommend a little nutmeg here)
cook the noodles (unless you have those magical bake-only ones), rinse in cold water, coat in olive oil
separately, make a killer tomato sauce (basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme... recipe upon request)
separately, saute 2 until caramelized, add 3 and 4 (each sliced thin), then 5
combine 1 (roasted) and 6 in a food processor + salt and pepper to taste
layer: noodle - tofu/pumpkin mix - saute - seeds - sauce (repeat, ending with noodle and light sauce on top)
bake for a while
