Preparation
To Make the Celeriac Noodle Base:
- Cut the ends off of your celeriac. Then, peel the hairy outer edge. It will look like a peeled potato when you are done.
- Slice the celeriac into thin slices.
- Put in a pot of boiling vegetable broth for about 5 minutes or until they have tenderized a bit.
- Set aside.
To Make the Acorn Squash Marinara:
- Cut acorn squash in half and remove the seeds.
- Make slices in the squash with a knife and lay face down in a pan filled with 1/2 inch of water.
- Roast them at 375ºF for 40-45 minutes or until soft.
- In a pot, sauté onion and garlic in olive oil. After about 5 minutes, it will become translucent.
- Add in your tomatoes, acorn squash, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.
- Mix with your hand mixer or blender until smooth.
To Make the Bean and Pesto “Ricotta” Mixture:
- Put all ingredients in your food processor or blender and mix until smooth.
To Assemble the Lasagna:

- Once you’re all done layering. Bake at 375ºF for 20-25 minutes.
