Low Fat Southwestern-style Lasagna Recipe

Low Fat Southwestern-style Lasagna

From markeverett 16 years ago

This is a nice twist on lasagna. It can be as spicy or mild as you like. We serve this with a tasty salad and warm flour tortillas. Great dinner!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven. Add onions and carrots; cook until onions are translucent. Crumble in ground beef and cook until no longer pink.
Drain excess fat. Add salsa, black beans, corn, chili powder and cumin, stirring well.
Spread one-third of beef mixture in a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Layer half the noodles on top; spoon half the ricotta cheese over the noodles. Add another third of the meat mixture, followed by remaining noodles and ricotta cheese. Spread rest of beef on top and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake for 35 minutes.
Serves 10

This looks sooo yummy!! Only change I'll make is to replace the turkey with TVP or fake ground beef, and it looks perfect! I can't wait! Thank you for sharing :)
