Method

Heat oven to 180 degrees. In medium bowl, combine marinara sauce and tomatoes with their juice, and vegetables. Spoon 1 cup tomato-sauce mixture into bowl. Mash cooked pumpkin, and mix with sage and ricotta. Arrange 1/4 of noodles over sauce, overlapping noodles and breaking into large pieces to cover as much sauce as possible. Spoon about 3/4 cup sauce over noodles, then top with 1/3 ricotta/pumpkin mixture, and 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Repeat layering 2 more times beginning with noodles. Place remaining noodles on top, then top with remaining sauce and shredded cheese. Cover with foil, and cook for 30-40 mins. Remove cover and cook another 10-15 mins.
