Thoroughly squeeze thawed frozen spinach in small handfuls to remove
excess moisture, then transfer to a bowl.
Melt butter over moderately low heat, then cook onion and garlic,
stirring, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add flour along with salt,
pepper,& nutmeg, and cook on medium heat 3-4 minutes, stirring
constantly. Add half and half to saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer
until thickened. Add 1 1/2 c of sauce to spinach and stir to combine.
Add vegetable broth to remaining sauce and simmer until again
thickened. Stir in 1/4 c parmesan.

Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Spray
a 9x13 shallow baking dish.

Layer 3 lasagne noodles n the pan. Cover with 1/3 of spinach mixture,
then 1/3 squash slices. Sprinkle with 2 T paremsan. Repeat layers twice
for a total of 3 layers. Cover with the remaining white sauce. Sprinkle
with the rest of the parmesan,
Cover with foil. Bake until squash is tender and filling is bubbling
about 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake gratin until browned in spots,
10 to 15 minutes

Cook's note: Gratin can be assembled, but not baked, 1 day ahead and
kept, surface covered with parchment or wax paper and then covered with
plastic wrap, chilled. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before
baking.

It was wonderful! This was adapted from a recipe in gourmet, but I
modified it. Try it, you'll like it!
