Butternut Squash Lasagna Rolls

Sunday was such a great day. Cool, crisp and extremely productive. Not to mention Sten got home from the men's retreat and we got to catch each other up on our weekends over some delicious Lasagna Rolls!

This recipe is pretty involved, but totally worth it if  your looking for a healthy fall meal. My initial plan was to make this and freeze it so I would have some meals to pull out on days that I got home late and didn't feel like cooking, but I was too anxious to try it- so we baked it up last night :)




The onion/garlic mixture is seriously to die for.


A little messy, but super easy.


All baked- crispy, flavorful, creamy and ummm so good!

I got this idea from Pinterest, but I didn't follow the recipe very well. Partly because I wanted to use things in my pantry, and partly because I didn't feel like buying expensive ingredients that I felt wouldn't make that much of a difference. If you want the original recipe you can find it here. This is my recipe/ modifications.

Butternut Squash Lasagna Rolls:
Makes: 10 rolls

3 strips bacon
1 onion
4 cloves garlic
1 cube chicken bouillon+ 1 C water
parsley flakes

1 roasted butternut squash
1/3 C nonfat Greek yogurt
1 Tbsp butter

10 Lasagna noodles cooked al dente

crumbled goat cheese.

Cook 3 strips of bacon. Save 2 tablespoons of grease. Toss in chopped onion, garlic, parsley salt and pepper. Saute 5 mins, add water and chicken bouillon- simmer 25-30 mins until all liquid has cooked off.
Cube roasted squash, and mix with butter and Greek yogurt in a mixer until smooth.
Cook lasagna noodles 10 mins. Smooth 1/4 cup of squash mixture and roll up, place seam side down in greased baking pan.
Cover rolls with onion mixture, bacon bits and goat cheese.
Freeze or bake at 400 degrees for 25 mins.

I would say besides the bacon grease this recipe is pretty healthy- and it doesn't taste like it! It tastes rich and it's so flavorful- Sten LOVED it.

ENJOY!

back 2 school. back at it. back to reality 2026

We eeeked out every last drop until it was time to head back to school on Wednesday. Annual tradition trip to Lucette after Meet the Teacher is the photo above. Happy to report that everyone did great the first 3 days of school- although I don't know if we're quite ready for a full 5 day week starting tomorrow :) Sten took the boys to Michigan to go to his cousins daughters wedding and they did something that Sten introduced me to when we were dating and on staff together at PLCBC- diving for golf balls! The boys thought it was a blast and I love that they got a bright blue -sunny -skies day to make the water look turquoise and the ball finding easy. While the boys were gone Lucy and I whooped it up! We went to the first Hudson football game... Went to the Glenwood City Rodeo.... AND drove to Iowa to see Josiah Queen at the Iowa State Fair!  Fun is an understatement to describe this little getaway and I feel so lucky we got to do this together. Then it was BACK TO REALITY! holy...

bookends/ teacher things/fall poem

The bookends of my day yesterday was God's way of showing me that I am going to be ok. This picture from my solo run in the morning was absolutely perfect. Cold hands, fast road miles, worship music and a text from a friend right in the middle of it saying that I was top of her prayer list that morning. Then in the evening the boys were outside playing waffle ball and Lucy was walking around the neighborhood with friends and I cranked up my music and cleaned the entire middle/lower level. I stopped at one point and thought-- this is the biggest gift right now.  Other things: I love pens. and there is something so satisfying about having every single color of felt tip/ gel tip at your disposal. lol. Life touch teacher photos--why is my ear showing so much? Is this what I always look like? Haley hosted the Badland Babes for some brunch after our Willow run on Saturday and she made THE most delicious food, didn't know I needed a bonfire until I was sitting in this chair eating thi...

Merry Christmas 2022

I am in complete denial that an entire year has passed! Where did 2022 go?! We celebrated some big milestones, had a lot of fun, and enjoyed our family most. Here are some highlights and lessons learned from 2022.  So. Much. Swimming! Lesson learned: ALWAYS get in the water. You’ll never regret it. Your kids will love you for it and you’ll make way more memories from inside the water than up on the boat. This day was particularly special as we were all together with Uncle Dan and Aunt Pam. We swam, we ate, we boated and we didn’t want the day to end. Having mom and dad move permanently to the Lake has been the BEST.  Midcurrent MOVED! We raised the money, hired the people, decorated and paved the way for more people to get to know Jesus. Before the carpet was laid we wrote prayers on the floor and I am so excited to see what 2023 will bring for Midcurrent. Lesson learned: do the big thing! Give people a chance to show up and see what God can do! Family camp is ALWAYS a highlig...
