Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium-sized red onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup premium taco seasoning
  • 12 six-inch flour tortillas
  • 24 oz quality salsa
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 3 cups shredded Mexican Cheese Blend
  • ½ cup water adjust as needed
  • 1 can of optional green chiles
  • 1 can black beans drained

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Using a spacious skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Once done, drain and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, sauté onions in olive oil until translucent. Introduce minced garlic, cooking for another minute.
  • Return the browned beef to the skillet, blending in taco seasoning, green chiles, and beans. Add water and let the mixture simmer. If it appears thick, sprinkle an additional 1-2 Tbsp of water.
  • Assemble the lasagna by starting with a layer of tortillas. Over this, spread a portion of salsa, followed by half of the beef mixture. Evenly dollop half of the sour cream, spreading it gently. Sprinkle with cheese. Repeat the layering process. Finish with a final layer of tortillas, the remaining salsa, and a generous amount of cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese bubbles and turns a golden hue, typically between 30-40 minutes.
