  2. Toss thinly sliced sweet potatoes, squash, and carrots with olive oil, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, thyme, and cinnamon.
  3. Spread onto baking sheets and roast 15–20 minutes, until just tender (they’ll cook more in the lasagna).

  1. In a bowl, mix ricotta, feta, egg, herbs, garlic, and nutmeg.
  2. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

3. Prepare the cranberry-honey glaze

Lightly oil a 9×13-inch baking dish.
