Butternut Squash Lasagna with Kale and Mushrooms ... a delicious, seasonal vegetarian lasagna recipe that's bursting with vegetables and perfect for any fall occasion. Serve it for a unique Thanksgiving or Christmas dish that everyone will love! | Hello Little Home

Every Thanksgiving is a little different for my husband and I. We don’t live near any of our relatives, so either we’re visiting them, they’re visiting us, or we’re spending the holiday with just the two of us.

This year, my sister-in-law is getting married the day before Thanksgiving, so we’ll be spending the big day with family.

I probably won’t do any cooking this year, but when I do cook for Thanksgiving, I like to experiment with different recipes.

Today, I’m sharing a recipe that’s sure to stand out on your Thanksgiving table: Butternut Squash Lasagna with Kale and Mushrooms. I’ve also teamed up with some of my favorite food bloggers, to bring you over 20 recipes for every course of your Thanksgiving meal!

Instructions
Prepare veggies:
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  2. Place butternut squash on baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper, then stir to coat squash with oil and seasonings.

  3. Roast squash until tender and lightly browned, flipping once (about 30 to 40 minutes).
  4. Meanwhile, heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.

  5. Add mushrooms to pan and cook until lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Stir in garlic and pepper flakes; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  7. Mix in kale, stir well, then add 1/4 cup water and cover pan.
  8. Reduce heat to medium low and cook until kale is tender and water is evaporated (about 5 minutes).
  9. Set veggies aside until ready to use.
  10. Reduce oven heat to 375 degrees.
Prepare ricotta:
  1. Mix together ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
Prepare bechamel:
  1. Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat.
  2. Whisk in flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  3. Slowly whisk in warm milk.
  4. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Cook until thickened, stirring frequently (about 10 minutes). The sauce should lightly coat the back of a spoon.
  5. Whisk in nutmeg and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. Spread 3/4 cup bechamel sauce over bottom of pan, then top with 3 lasagna noodles.
