  4. While the squash is baking heat a pan with olive oil and sauté onions until translucent.
  5. Add the sausage and chop it in to fine pieces while cooking.
  6. Throw in the kale and the seasonings and lit simmer until all ingredients are cooked. Approximately five minutes.
  7. Follow the crepe instructions in the link above. I personally use a griddle to speed of the crepe making process.
  8. Once you have finished cooking all of the crepes you can start assembly.

Assembly

  1. Preheat oven to 375
  2. Grease a small rectangular baking dish
  3. Add two crepes and spread about 1/3 cup sauce and one cup of filling. Repeat with three more layers.
  4. Top it with two more shells and liberally spread more sauce.
  5. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until lasagna is hot and bubbly.

Notes

  • You can bake the squash and make the crepes ahead of time to make assembly faster.
