My whole family loves this!!! I use low sodium taco seasoning, doesn't seem as salty that way. It reheats great, plenty of leftovers -
I used 8.8 oz. Giovanni lasagna No boil which is 6 wide sheets. Making 3 layers. With the meat mixture on each. I seasoned with dried oregano and parsley. I didn`t use the taco seasoning and black beans because my DS does not like beans and would not eat if he saw them. So I double the refried beans and he`ll never know. LOL! I found this serves 6-8. Thanks! -
I made two of these, one for myself, and one for my dad for his birthday. He loves lasagna and Mexican food, so I knew when I saw this in Light & Tasty I HAD to make it. It was a hit, he keeps asking me to make another one :o) -
YUM! I made this last night and the only difference was I left out the jalapeno (my 5 yr old doesnt enjoy them as much as I do) and I also omitted the black beans. Other than that, I kept everything else the same. This was so easy and definitely a keeper. The sour cream and green onions took it to another level. Thanks Redsie! Made for PAC. -
Thanks, Redsie! This was really yummy and very easy to make. We really enjoyed...thanks for sharing. I didn't change a thing.
