Mexican Lasagna

Posted on24. Nov, 2009 by Mary Lutz.

Dang it! Another great recipe without a photo and we found our camera and everything! Will I ever get the hang of it!!!

Anyway! The other night, last night, I made Mexican lasagna! There is no pasta in it and we only call it that because you layer it like a lasagna!

What you need:

• 2.5 lbs hamburger meat
• 1 large can of green enchilada sauce
• 12 corn tortillas
• 1 large can of refried beans
• 2 lbs shredded cheese
• your favorite Mexican seasonings. I use Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle, Garlic Powder and Pepper

What you do:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. Brown ground beef.
3. While its cooking, add your meat seasonings so they cook in nicely
4. Warm up the refried beans in the microwave for 2 minutes. Take them out of the can first silly.
5. Drain the grease off of the hamburger meat
6. Add the can of enchilada sauce and mix well.
7. Coat a 13×9 glass baking dish with oil
8. Line the bottom of the pan with 6 tortillas
9. Spread 1/2 the refried beans on the tortillas
10. Add 1/2 the meat sauce and spread evenly over the beans
11. Sprinkle 1/2 the cheese over the meat sauce
12. Lay the other 6 tortillas over the cheese
13. Repeat steps 9 through 11, ending with cheese.
14. If you prefer, leave off the last layer of cheese.
15. Bake for 1/2 hour, add the last layer of cheese during the last 15 minutes
16. Slice into squares and enjoy!

This pan feeds my family of 7 when they are all here plus leftovers!!!
