Ingredients

1 butternut squash
3 tbsp canola oil
9 lasagna noodles
1 3/4 cups 2% milk
1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
2 tbsp butter
3 cloves garlic
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
8 oz fontina cheese
3/4 cups grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps

Heat the oven to 425 F, halve the squash, coat it with 1 tablespoon oil, and roast cut-side down on a baking sheet for 25 minutes.
Boil the lasagna noodles in a large pot of water until tender, then drain them.
Scoop the squash into a bowl and mash it with the heavy cream until mostly smooth.
Melt the butter with the remaining oil in a saucepan over medium heat, cook the garlic for 1 minute, then whisk in the flour, milk, rosemary, salt, and pepper for 5 minutes.
Spread sauce in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, then layer noodles, squash, sauce, fontina, and Parmesan, repeating until used.
Cover with foil and bake at 375 F for 25 minutes, then uncover and bake for 10 minutes until bubbling.
