This Roasted Butternut Squash and Spinach Lasagna is the perfect baked pasta for cozy November and December nights with family and friends. Beautiful layers of seasonal butternut squash, creamy buttery béchamel sauce, spinach, and lasagna noodles, all come together in this vegetable-focused lasagna. It’s vibrant, creamy, a little cheesy, and so delicious! Top the lasagna with salty prosciutto before baking for a warming dinner that’s mouth-wateringly delicious.

Ingredients: MEATBALLS 2 pounds ground pork 2 large eggs 3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs 2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 tablespoon fish sauce 2 teaspoons kosher salt BROTH One 13 1/2-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk 2 cups chicken stock or low-sodium broth 1/4 cup thinly sliced peeled fresh ginger 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced 2 fresh red chiles, thinly sliced, plus extra for serving (see Note) Finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 lime 1 tablespoon fish sauce 1 teaspoon ground turmeric 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar Kosher salt A few handfuls of baby spinach TO SERVE Roughly chopped fresh mint and cilantro leaves Additional lime wedges Steamed jasmine rice (I estimate about 1/4 cup cooked per serving)

Ingredients: 2 farm eggs 1 cup LorrenJoyce Farms raw milk 1 tsp cinnamon 6 slices of Country Levain from Juniper Cottage Bake Shop 2 tbsp butter Maple syrup from Root Seller LLC

Ingredients: 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds zucchini, thinner longer ones are ideal here Olive oil Coarse or kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 lemon 1 3/4 cups (from 1 15-ounce can) small-to-medium-sized white beans, drained (I used – Goya’s Great Northern beans) 1 garlic clove, peeled A 2-ounce bundle of basil (this is the small clamshell size at most groceries) 1 to 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar Coarsely grated parmesan, to taste Directions: Prepare the zucchini: Trim ends and cut zucchini the long way into 1/4-inch strips. I use a mandoline for this but a knife works too. Spread out strips on a large tray and brush lightly with olive oil and season well with salt and pepper. On a grill (I use the full heat, but have a dinky, small grill; you might find a more moderate heat better here) or a grill pan, grill zucchini in a single layer until grill marks appear underneath, then flip over and repeat the same on the other side. Transfer zucchini back to platter and squeeze lemon juice over it. Meanwhile, in a food processor or blender, combine basil and garlic with a few good pinches of salt and a few grinds of black pepper until chopped. Drizzle in olive oil until it blends smoothly; you’ll want about 4, sometimes 5, tablespoons. Add 1 tablespoon vinegar and blend until well-mixed; taste and add more vinegar, up to 1 more tablespoon, to taste. Season to taste. Combine beans with about 2/3 of the dressing in a small bowl. In a larger bowl or serving platter, pour half of dressed beans in the bottom. Arrange grilled zucchini on top, twisting and turning it so that it looks extra ribbony. Spoon remaining beans in the spaces. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the platter, to taste. Finish with a light blanket of parmesan and eat whenever you’re ready. As assembled, it keeps well at room temperature for an hour, giving you time to do everything else. Recipe from Smitten Kitchen. Click here for the recipe!
