ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, GARLIC, AND APPLE SOUP
Butternut squash, sweet potato, carrot, and garlic roasted in large pieces and then added to onion, celery, apple, and vegetable broth. Immersion blender does the trick for thickening without adding fat. Use curry powder in place of cayenne if you prefer more savory flavors than spicy. Apple juice can also be used in place of cider, and chicken broth in place of vegetable.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Brush the butternut squash halves with vegetable oil and season with salt. Roast in the preheated oven until golden and easily pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool for 15 to 20 minutes, then scoop the flesh into a bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and stir garlic in the butter until softened. Stir in flour and cook for 3 minutes. Whisk in the milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, and cook until thick, about 10 minutes, whisking occasionally. Stir in the butternut squash and season with salt and pepper. Sauce can be made 3 days ahead and refrigerated.
- Reduce oven temperature to to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Beat the heavy cream until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Gradually add the salt, continuing to beat until medium peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the tip of the peak formed by the cream should curl over slightly. Set aside.
- Pour 1 cup of the butternut sauce into the baking dish and place 3 lasagna noodles on top in a single layer. Spread half of the remaining sauce over the noodles and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Place another layer of noodles and spread the remaining sauce on top and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese. Place the final layer of noodles on top. Spread the whipped cream over the final layer of noodles making sure the pasta is completely covered. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup of Parmesan. Cover baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until the top is bubbly and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

ROSEMARY ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND BEETS WITH GARLIC
NOTE: IT AS BEEN POINTED OUT IN THE REVIEWS THAT SQUASH COOKS FASTER THAN THE BEETS! Modified from AJC (online) What's For Dinner -- Food writer and AJC dining critic Meridith Ford Goldman found multiple uses for fresh pumpkin in AJC's Halloween feature story. Cut away chunks of pumpkin from the lid and inside scraps of your jack-o'-lantern, or use a separate pumpkin for roasting in this delectable fall side dish. Because I no longer buy pumpkins for Halloween, I've substituted butternut squash in this recipe.

CREAMY BUTTERNUT SQUASH FARRO WITH ROASTED GARLIC

ROASTED GARLIC AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 220C, 425F, Mark 7 Place the garlic, half the oil and the thyme sprigs in a foil parcel. Brush or rub a tbsp of the oil all over the squash halves and place on a baking tray with the foil parcel. Place the baking tray in the oven and roast the squash and garlic for 25 minutes then reduce the heat to 190C, 375F, Mark 5 and roast for a further 25 minutes. If the squash isn't tender throughout, return to the oven until it is. While the squash and garlic are cooling, heat the rest of the oil in a large heavy pan and gently cook the onions and coriander for 10 minutes or until softened. Scoop the flesh of the squash out of the skin and add the the onions. Squeeze the the garlic out of it's skin, I usually use the back of a teaspoon to avoid burning myself, and add to the pan with the onions and squash. Add the stock, half the oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Let the mix cool slightly, then process in a blender. Reheat and add the remaining oregano to serve.
