Butternut Squash Lasagna Rolls
Last year I fell in love with creamy butternut squash as a pasta sauce and have had this on my mind ever since. Now that the Fall is here it was the perfect time to play around with this idea. You may also enjoy these Spinach Lasagna Rolls Ups and this gluten-free Noodle-less Butternut Squash Chicken Sausage Lasagna.
These lasagna rolls up turned out better than I could have imagined, even my teen daughter who is pretty picky loved these! And, they are meatless so they're perfect for meatless Mondays or the vegetarians in your life. Trust me, you won't miss it!
How To Make Butternut Squash Lasagna Roll Ups
To make the creamy butternut squash sauce, I boil the butternut squash until it's tender, then puree it with enough liquid to create a silky, cream like sauce. Saute the sauce with garlic and shallots and add some Parmesan cheese at the end. The sauce comes out so cream and velvety without all the butter and cream.
To make it gluten-free, you can swap gluten-free noodles in it's place.

Remove squash with a slotted spoon, reserve about 1 cup of the water and set aside, then blend until smooth with an immersion blender, adding 1/4 cup of the reserved liquid to thin out.

Meanwhile, in a large deep non-stick skillet, add the oil, sauté the shallots and garlic over medium-low heat until soft and golden, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add pureed butternut squash, season with with salt and fresh cracked pepper and add a little more of the reserved water to thin out to your liking.

Ladle about 1 cup of sauce over the noodles in the baking dish and top each one with 1 tbsp Italian cheese blend.
