Mexican Lasagna


Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the filling

  • In a large skillet, cook ground beef and onion over medium heat until browned.
  • Drain any excess fat.
  • Stir in garlic, taco seasoning, salsa (or enchilada sauce), beans, and corn.
  • Simmer 3–4 minutes to blend flavors.

2️⃣ Assemble

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a greased 9×13 in (23×33 cm) baking dish, spread a thin layer of the meat mixture.
  • Place tortillas over the meat layer (tear as needed to fit).
  • Sprinkle with cheese.
  • Repeat layers: meat → tortillas → cheese, ending with cheese on top.

3️⃣ Bake

  • Cover with foil and bake 20 minutes.
  • Remove foil and bake another 10–15 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.

4️⃣ Serve

  • Let rest 5–10 minutes before slicing.
  • Top with cilantro, sour cream, and fresh tomatoes if desired.

💡 Tips & Variations:

  • Use enchilada sauce for a more saucy, spicy lasagna.
  • Add sautéed bell peppers for extra veggies.
  • Replace tortillas with layered tortilla chips for a crunchy version.

If you’d like, I can also give you a creamy chicken version of Mexican lasagna with a white sauce that’s super rich and comforting.
