  • Total Time 1 hour 25 minutes
  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • Olive oil, for baking dish
    • 4 cups Acorn Squash Puree (http://www.marthastewart.com/255443/acorn-squash-puree), or 2 packages (12 ounces each) frozen winter squash puree, thawed
    • 1/2 teaspoon dried rubbed sage
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper
    • 1 container (15 ounces) part-skim ricotta cheese
    • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    • 8 no-boil lasagna noodles, half of an 8-ounce package

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush an 8-inch square baking dish with oil; set aside. In a medium bowl, mix squash puree with sage, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. In another bowl, mix ricotta with 1/2 cup Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
  2. Lay 2 lasagna noodles in the bottom of prepared dish; spread with half the squash mixture. Layer with 2 more noodles, and spread with half the ricotta mixture. Repeat layering with remaining noodles and mixtures. Sprinkle top (ricotta mixture) with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan.
  3. Cover baking dish with foil; place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until lasagna is heated through, about 45 minutes; remove foil, and continue baking until golden on top, 20 to 25 minutes more.
