I especially like this comforting fall dish because it's vegetarian. Even friends who aren't big fans of pumpkin are surprised by this delectable lasagna! Canned pumpkin and no-cook noodles make it a cinch to prepare. —Tamara Huron, Colorado Springs, Colorado

I made this for a dinner party last night. I added a layer of thin sliced zucchini for color and used fresh chopped sage in place of dry. It was wonderful. And if you are on Weight Watchers, a serving is only 8 pts (Points Plus)!

This is really good. I don't even like pumpkin pie and I love this recipe. Everyone else really likes it too.

My husband and I really liked this recipe, but my 10 and 7 year old are still at the table picking at it. Their loss! More leftovers for me!

I love butternut squash ravioli so when I saw this I had to try it. This is the first time I have used no-cook noodles and boy howdy I am a fan! This dish was smooth, savory and delicious! My Mother was visiting and she also thought it was superb. Today I will have it left over and will report back. I have a feeling it will be faboo. One note: I did add about a 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil to the ricotta cheese- that's how I spice up my stuffed shells and I thought it worked very well with this dish.

Made this recently and my husband was not in favor of it until he tasted it. He ate two helpings and loved it.

Will make this often.

I made this last Fall and received rave reviews! I had to make it again for Halloween. My family thought it was delicious and fun.
