Ingredients

  • 3 cups butternut squash, cubed

  • 2 tsp. olive oil (optional)

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 shallot, minced

  • 2 cups frozen spinach

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 4 whole grain lasagna noodles, cooked

  • 2 cups marinara sauce

  • 1/2 cup fresh basil, sliced into thin ribbons

  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds, lightly toasted (optional)

Directions

  • Toss the cubed squash in the olive oil (if desired) and a sprinkle of salt. Roast at 350°F for 25 minutes, or until soft and golden brown on one side.
  • Cook the garlic, shallot, and spinach in a saucepan over low heat until warm. Add a touch of water if needed to prevent sticking and browning.
  • Mash the squash with the spinach. Season with the salt and pepper.
  • Lay the noodles flat. Spread the spinach and squash mixture evenly on one side. Starting at one end, roll each noodle up tightly.
  • Place the roll-ups in a pan and cover with 1 1/2 cups of the marinara. Bake at 400°F for about 15 minutes, or until fragrant and browned.
  • Remove from the oven and cover with the remaining marinara. Top with the basil and sunflower seeds.
