Method

  1. Fry the onion in a little oil until soft, add the butternut squash and fry until tender and slightly browned around the edges. Add the cinnamon, a grating of nutmeg and the milk and mash roughly. Heat the spinach with another grating of nutmeg.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the lasagne slices in boiling water for 3 minutes and drain. Put a sheet of lasagne in a small baking dish, add a layer of butternut squash and half the spinach. Season. Add another layer of lasagne and the rest of the butternut squash and spinach. Season and follow with a final layer of lasagne. Rip the mozzarella into pieces and scatter it over the final sheet, grill briefly until the mozzarella bubbles and browns.

    i agree with the above comment, was a little bland and i added a white lasange style sauce too. next time i shall add some chopped red peppers to give a bit more flavour. but all in all, it was tasty and very easy.

    This lasagne really lacked taste which for a vegetarian recipe was a real disappointment. It needs a sauce of some sort to bind the ingredients together with pasta like a traditional lasagne

    I added mild goats cheese to mine and more onion and I added yellow pepper as it is slightly sweeter than red. This helped alot I think. On the top I scattered mixed dried hers on and this gave it a bit more flavour. But as far as the basic recipe goes it was really blan the first time I had it!
