Printable Recipe 
Filling
10 cup (1/2-inch) cubed butternut squash (about 4 pounds)
1/4 cup chopped shallots
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
Cooking spray
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Sauce
3 slices applewood smoked bacon, chopped
1/2 pound shallots, peeled and halved
6 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (14-ounce) can chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Other
16 cooked lasagna noodles
3/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup chopped toasted pecans

Prepare the Filling (this can be done a day in advance)
Preheat oven to 400°.

To prepare filling, combine first 3 ingredients on a jelly roll pan coated with cooking spray. Drizzle with butter; toss to coat. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Place squash mixture in a large bowl; mash with a potato masher. Stir in greek yogurt, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Prepare the sauce
To prepare sauce, cook bacon in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan, reserving 2 teaspoons drippings in pan; set bacon aside. Add 1/2 pound shallots and garlic to drippings in pan; sauté 5 minutes or until browned. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place pan on stovetop over medium-high heat. Add wine, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in salt and pepper.

Assemble the meal
Spread 1/4 cup filling over each noodle, leaving a 1/2-inch border on each short end. Beginning with a short end, roll up noodles jelly-roll fashion. Place rolls, seam sides down, in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray. Pour sauce over noodles; sprinkle evenly with cheese. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until cheese is golden. Sprinkle with bacon and hazelnuts.
