Golden Butternut Squash Lasagna image

My rich, saucy lasagna features winter squash at its finest. The whipped cream topping adds a unique twist to this meatless casserole packed with roasted butternut squash, two kinds of cheese and a host of seasonings. Allowing the lasagna to stand for 10 to 15 minutes before serving makes it easier to cut. -Lisa Sheets, Carmel, Indiana

This lasagna is a great way to use up leftover Thanksgiving turkey. I used some leftover turkey in mine and it was delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of butternut squash, but I decided to give this lasagna a try and I'm so glad I did! It was surprisingly delicious. The squash was cooked perfectly and the lasagna was very flavorful.

This lasagna was absolutely delicious! I made it for my family last night and everyone loved it. The butternut squash added a nice sweetness to the dish and the ricotta cheese made it creamy and rich. I will definitely be making this again!
