I think this recipe originally came from Gourmet, but I think you should make 1.5 times the sauce or else it's too dry.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Cut the squash into small equal-sized pieces (about 1/2-inch/2 cm). Toss the squash and onion with half the butter, the honey, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper until well combined. Spread in a single layer on parchment-lined baking sheets. Roast, turning occasionally, for 20 to 25 minutes or until very tender (rotate the baking sheets halfway through cooking). Cool slightly; combine with the cottage cheese, milk, broth and Gorgonzola.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch (3 L) casserole dish. Spread one quarter of the cottage cheese mixture evenly into the dish. Cover with an even layer of noodles, trimming to fit. Repeat layers of cheese and noodles twice. Spread the remaining cheese mixture evenly over the noodles.
- Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, toss breadcrumbs with walnuts, parsley and remaining butter; sprinkle the lasagna evenly with breadcrumb mixture. Broil for 3 minutes or until golden brown. Rest for 20 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Brush the butternut squash halves with vegetable oil and season with salt. Roast in the preheated oven until golden and easily pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool for 15 to 20 minutes, then scoop the flesh into a bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and stir garlic in the butter until softened. Stir in flour and cook for 3 minutes. Whisk in the milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, and cook until thick, about 10 minutes, whisking occasionally. Stir in the butternut squash and season with salt and pepper. Sauce can be made 3 days ahead and refrigerated.
- Reduce oven temperature to to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Beat the heavy cream until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Gradually add the salt, continuing to beat until medium peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the tip of the peak formed by the cream should curl over slightly. Set aside.
- Pour 1 cup of the butternut sauce into the baking dish and place 3 lasagna noodles on top in a single layer. Spread half of the remaining sauce over the noodles and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Place another layer of noodles and spread the remaining sauce on top and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Place the final layer of noodles on top. Spread the whipped cream over the final layer of noodles making sure the pasta is completely covered. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup of Parmesan. Cover baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until the top is bubbly and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Butternut Squash: Select a medium-sized butternut squash that feels heavy for its size. A ripe squash will have a deep orange color and smooth, unblemished skin.
- Roast the Butternut Squash Properly: Roasting the butternut squash brings out its natural sweetness and caramelized flavor. Roast the squash until it is tender and slightly browned, about 30-40 minutes. Be sure to brush the squash with olive oil and season it with salt and pepper before roasting.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh rosemary and garlic add a delicious savory flavor to the lasagna. If you don't have fresh rosemary, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary.
- Don't Overcook the Lasagna: The lasagna should be cooked until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the noodles are tender, about 30-35 minutes. Overcooking the lasagna will make it dry and tough.
- Let the Lasagna Rest: Before slicing and serving, let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the lasagna to firm up.
Conclusion:
This roasted butternut squash, rosemary, and garlic lasagna is a delicious and hearty vegetarian dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The roasted butternut squash adds a sweet and caramelized flavor to the lasagna, while the fresh rosemary and garlic add a savory flavor. The lasagna is also very easy to make, and it can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving. So, next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying vegetarian meal, give this roasted butternut squash, rosemary, and garlic lasagna a try!
