Pumpkin lasagna (Jan 2008, from Chiara)


Ingredients:

*	˝ Pumpkin
*	1 onion
*	500 gr béchamel
*	1 teaspoon olive oil
*	9 lasagna noodles
*	150 gr. shredded mozzarella cheese
*	300 gr. parmesan cheese
*	50 gr hazelnuts
*	2 macaroons (amaretto biscuits)

Directions:

1.	Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add first finely
chopped onion, and -when it becomes golden- finely chopped pumpkin; saute
until done.
2.	Spoon some béchamel sauce into a casserole dish, cover with uncooked
noodles, and top with the pumpkin mixture, some béchamel, some crumbled
hazelnuts, some mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Every two layers add half a
crumbled macaroon. Repeat several time until the lasagna noodles are over.
Over the last layer add just a little béchamel and parmesan cheese.
3.	Bake in a preheated 200 degree C oven for 20 minutes. Remove from
oven, and let stand 15 minutes before serving.
