Butternut, Blue Cheese and Pesto Lasagne~

This makes a lovely change from the traditional......but not for the younger ones....at least not in my home..


The Recipe~

750ml bechamel sauce
250g lasagne sheets
4 - 6 cups of roasted butternut
2 tbsp basil pesto
100g blue cheese grated
250ml parmesan and cheddar combined, grated
2 tbsp olive oil

Preheat the oven to 180deg C
Toss the roasted butternut cubes in olive .
Pour a thin layer of bechamel sauce in the bottom of the ovenproof dish
Place a layer of lasagne sheets over the sauce. Spread half of the butternut over the lasagne and spoon pesto randomly.
Sprinkle over a third of the blue cheese.
Repeat once more, ending with the bechamel sauce.
Sprinkle the parmesan/cheddar over the top. Bake 30 ~40 mins.
Remove and stand for 10 mins before serving....
I served it with rocket leaves tossed in truffle infused olive oil!











BON APPETIT!
