Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and chop the butternut squash into small cubes and prepare a baking dish with lined parchment paper.
  2. Toss the chopped butternut squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper until coated. Roast with unpeeled garlic on a baking sheet for 25–30 minutes until tender.
  3. Boil salted water in a large pot. Cook lasagna noodles until al dente, about 8–10 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine roasted butternut squash, squeezed roasted garlic, ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, salt, black pepper, and dried sage. Mash together until creamy.
  5. Spread marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the filling on each noodle, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the dish.
  6. Top roll-ups with remaining marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes, then remove foil and broil for 2-3 minutes.
  7. Let cool for about 5 minutes, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve.
