Southwestern Lasagna Casserole
Put a twist on taco night with this easy Taco Lasagna Casserole. It has layers of corn tortillas, cheese, seasoned beef and green chiles. I have been making this recipe for over 20 years and it’s always a hit at any party. It’s a hearty, comforting dinner that’s great for family dinners or potlucks.
It’s layered just like a traditional lasagna but instead of lasagna noodles you use corn tortillas like you would for enchiladas. Add some other favorite southwestern ingredients like seasoned ground beef, cheese, and green chiles and you end up with family-friendly dinner that’s easy to make.
It’s so much easier than making enchiladas or lasagna, too. No boiling pasta required and instead filling and rolling the tortillas you just layer everything in your baking dish. You still get all the great flavors but without all the work – this is an epic casserole recipe!
