INSTRUCTIONS
In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles until barely tender (8
minutes for dried, 1 minute for fresh). Drain and rinse under cold
water. Spread the noodles on clean kitchen towels, cover with plastic
wrap and set aside. In a small bowl, combine sun-dried tomatoes and
dried porcini mushrooms. Add 1 cup boiling water, cover and let stand
for 10 minutes. Lift out the tomatoes & mushrooms and chop. Strain the
soaking liquid through a fine sieve and set aside. In a saucepan, heat
1 cup of the milk over medium heat until steaming. Meanwhile, put 3
tablespoons of flour in a small bowl and gradually whisk in the
remaining 1/3 cup of milk until smooth; whisk into the hot milk and
stir constantly over the heat until the sauce comes to a simmer and
thickens. Continue cooking and stirring for 1 minute. Remove from
heat. Whisk in the cream cheese, then 2/3 cup of the spaghetti sauce
and the vinegar. Searson with salt and pepper. Set aside. In a large
non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions,
carrots and garlic and saute until soft, about 2 minutes. Add fresh
mushrooms, rosemary, and the reserved tomatoes and porcini; cook until
the fresh mushrooms are just wilted, about 2 minutes longer. Stir in
the remaining 1 teaspoon of flour. Add the reserved soalking liquid
and the remaining 1/3 cup of spaghetti sauce. Cook until the mixture
thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, season with salt and
pepper. Preheat oven to 400 F. Lightly spray a 9 x 13 in baking sheet
with cooking spray or oil. Smear the botom of the prepared dish with
1/2 cup of the sauce. Line bottom with 1/4 of noodles (1 layer). Then
spread 1/2 of mushroom mixuture & sprinkle with 2 tablespoons
parmesan. Add 2nd layer of noodles, then the squash (sprinkle with
salt and pepper) and another 1/2 cup of the sauce. Add 3rd noodle
layer, remaining mushroom mixure and 2 tablespoons of parmesan. Top
with remaining noodles and sauce, then remaining parmesan. Lightly oil
a large piece of aluminum foil or coat it with cooking spray, and use
it to tighly cover the baking dish. Bake the lasagne for 30 minutes,
uncover and bake for additional 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly
brown and bubbing. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. According
