Mexican Lasagna

I found this recipe yesterday and decided to make it for dinner because I had all of the ingredients... and it turned out WAY good! :) We liked it a lot! The recipe was actually called Mexican Casserole but I decided that it should be called Mexican Lasagna. It's pretty much lasagna Mexican style... with tortillas instead of lasagna noodles. It was really easy and fast and really tasty! :)

Mexican Lasagna

1 lb. ground turkey or lean ground beef
1 large onion, chopped

1 packet Taco Seasoning mix (1/4 cup)

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 can diced tomatoes, drained

1 can cream of mushroom soup

8-10 corn tortillas (12 oz package)

3-4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Haas avocado, sliced

sour cream

fresh cilantro

Brown meat with diced onion over medium heat. Add taco seasoning, black beans, tomatoes, and cream of mushroom soup. Stir to combine and warm through. In 9×13 inch pan, place a small amount of meat mixture on bottom (so tortillas won’t stick). Place a layer of tortillas down, then a layer of the meat mixture, and sprinkle on a little cheese. Repeat with another layer of corn tortillas, a layer of meat mixture… and top with remaining shredded cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Serve topped with sliced avocado, sour cream, and fresh cilantro.


Enjoy!
