This is a great lasagna with a Mexican twist. The recipe can be prepared for vegetarians or meat eaters. I love to play around with this recipe and adding different cheeses like ricotta is good too. It's absolutely delicious and you can add whatever ... More

Ingredients
  • 1 can (15.5 ounces) refried beans
  • Note: I like to add 1 lb. of fried ground beef, 1 sauted sliced or chopped green pepper and 1 onion chopped to the refried beans. Sometimes I add 1/2 a pkg. of taco seasoning it depends on my mood ;)
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
  • 3 LARGE flour tortillas (burrito size)
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterrey Jack, or pepper jack)
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons cilantro / parsley, fresh or dried
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Note: Prep time is 30 minutes if you saute ground beef with onions and green bell peppers.

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Mix together the refried beans, sauted ground beef, green peppers and onions, drained canned tomatoes, chili powder, cilantro, cumin, and salt.
  3. In a lightly sprayed 9 X 9 square baking dish (or similar sized dish but the size isn't important to this recipe), evenly spread 1/4 cup salsa.
  4. Over the salsa, lay down one tortilla, and on top of that spread 1/2 of the bean mixture.
  5. Top with 1/2 cup shredded cheese and 1/4 cup salsa.
  6. Repeat the layering ie. add one tortilla, the other 1/2 of the bean mixture, 1/2 cup cheese, and 1/4 cup salsa.
  7. Top with the other tortilla, the rest of the cheese, and the rest of the salsa. For color, sprinkle with a little extra cilantro.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
  9. Let sit for at least 3 minutes before serving.
  10. Serve with guacamole sauce.
  11. Serves 2.
