Put the squash in a deep frying pan with some olive oil, the garlic, and plenty of salt and pepper and cook gently, stirring often, for 15 minutes or until the squash is tender. Stir through the spinach and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring it once or twice until it wilts and any liquid has evaporated.

Add half of the squash mixture followed by 2 more lasagne sheets then the remaining squash mixture and lasagne sheets. Spoon the cream on top, making sure all the pasta is covered, and sprinkle with the parmesan. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling around the edges.
