Cut Butternut Squash into 1-inch cubes. Toss with Olive Oil, Salt, and Black Pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender.
While squash roasts, prepare Ricotta Filling: In a bowl, combine Ricotta Cheese, Parmesan Cheese, Egg, Fresh Sage, Nutmeg, and Salt. Mix well.
Prepare Bechamel Sauce: In a saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Whisk in All-Purpose Flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, creating a roux. Gradually whisk in Milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until thickened. Season with Salt and White Pepper.
Assemble lasagna: Spread a thin layer of Bechamel Sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer with 3 Lasagna Noodles, half of the Ricotta Filling, half of the roasted Butternut Squash, and 1/3 of the remaining Bechamel Sauce. Repeat layers. Top with remaining 3 Lasagna Noodles, remaining Bechamel Sauce, and Mozzarella Cheese.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving.
