Blue Ribbon Recipe

We were surprised at how much we enjoyed this Mexican taco lasagna. It's basically a layered casserole that takes beef and bean tacos to a new level. This casserole has the flavors of tacos and adds gooey cheese and beans for a hearty meal. It takes a little bit of time to prepare, but it's still easy enough for a weeknight meal. We topped ours with a little sour cream, taco sauce, and jalapenos. But, use your favorite toppings. On the side, we served charro beans and Spanish rice for a full meal.

How To Make mexican taco lasagna

Test Kitchen Tips

If you think the meat mixture is too thick, add up to 1/4 cup water to the mixture.

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Brown ground beef in a skillet. Drain grease. Mix in taco seasoning. Then stir in 1/4 cup of salsa.

Step 2

Spread refried beans on one side of each tortilla. Depending on your family's preference, go as heavy or as light as you want.
Step 3

In a 9x13 baking dish, add a small amount of the meat mixture on the bottom and spread to cover the bottom.
Step 4

Next, layer 2 of the tortillas with the beans down.
Step 5

Then, top the tortillas with a little meat and cheese.
Step 6

Layer 2 more times for a total of 3 layers. In the final layer, add the rest of the meat mixture, remaining 1/2 cup salsa, and a few shakes of taco sauce.
Step 7

Top with cheese.
Step 8

Bake uncovered for 20 minutes or until melted and bubbly.
Step 9

Serve with toppings such as sour cream, jalapeño, guacamole, etc.
