I left the house to get spinach to make garbanzos con espinach but I discovered lasagne sheets at the store and we wound up with this instead. I did make it up as I went along but in writing it down have edited it slightly as it could have wound up a bit too dry. It keeps quite well but doesn't often make it that far being so tasty and tangy.
1 sweet potato, peeled and sliced into 5cm discs
1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 5cm pieces
1 tsp allspice
1 tblsp extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
200g fresh spinach
200g feta
2 egg yolks
125ml sour cream
50ml milk
parmesan
nutmeg
1 pkt lasagna sheets
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C then prep all the vegetables
Mix the squash & sweet potato with the allspice and half the oil and season to taste then roast in the oven for 20 - 25mins until soft then put to one side and turn the oven down to 180 degrees.
Meanwhile, cook the onion in the rest of the oil in a pan over medium heat until soft, transluscent. Season and put to one side.
Wash the spinach well then wilt over heat (no oil) in batches. Squeeze out any excess moisture.
Mix the feta, yolks, cream and milk in a saucepan over low heat, try and remove most lumps.
Now you have all the bits ready - assemble the lasagne.
Put a thin layer of the sauce at the bottom of the tray. Cover with a layer of pasta sheets.
Layer over the sweet potato and then the squash. Look for two levels of the alternating vegetables. If they arent oily, brush with some more oil. Put another layer of pasta sheet.
Put some more sauce on top of the pasta and then a layer of spinach. Grate nutmeg over the spinach.
Another layer of pasta sheets goes on and then smother the whole thing with the remaining sauce. Grate more nutmeg and plenty of parmesan over the top.
Bake in the oven for 20 - 30 mins until brown on top.

I just cooked this after trying it at a friend's last month and loving it! It worked out really well, but I did end up doubling the quantities for the sauce as it just didn't go far enough. However the result was gorgeous, creamy, tangy lasagne that held really well. And the man loved it. Thanks! P.s but when are you meant to add the onions and to what? I just whacked them in with the squash..
