Lasagna with Squash, Ricotta, and Spinach
Serves 6
Ingredients
3 cups roasted and puréed squash (butternut squash is the best. Can be replaced with pumpkin purée)
16 oz fresh whole milk Ricotta
salt
pepper
olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
10 oz fresh baby spinach
lasagna pasta sheets (1/2 pack, about 12 sheets)
1 cup marinara sauce
8 oz mozzarella
Method
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl mix squash purée and ricotta. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve.
Drizzle olive oil in a sauté pan. Over medium heat sauté garlic until brown and add spinach. Cook for about 3 minutes and season with salt & pepper.
In a large rectangular dish, pour 1/3 of the squash/Ricotta mixture. Cover with lasagna sheets. Add another 1/3 of squash & ricotta mixture, cover with spinach (save a few leaves for decoration), then with lasagna pasta. Pour the rest of the squash/ricotta mixture, add tomato sauce. Add remaining spinach and cover with mozzarella. Bake for 30 minutes. Enjoy!
