So last week I was in charge of dinner. I saw this recipe for Roasted Pumpkin and Smoked Blue Cheese Lasagna, two of my favorite flavors! Thought it sounded delicious. The only problem was, you have slice real pumpkin from the shell and roast it. I took an easier route and substituted already cubed butternut squash, similar consistency and flavor I think? Anywho, the lasagna turned out beautifully, but it didn't taste nearly as good as I thought it would. Honestly, I didn't really like it at all, and I think Megan would agree. The blue cheese was a little too strong, and we both thought it needed something acidic, like tomato, to mix up the flavor combinations. I think if I were to make this again, I would ease up on the blue cheese and not make it such a prominate ingredient. Here are the pics! (Ooo and this was my first time making a real lasagna with lasagna noodles...kind of pleased with how it turned out :) )
