Mexican Lasagna

Everyone really enjoys this! Very simple and tasty. Serve with sour cream and salsa. This freezes beautifully for once-a-month cooking. (Just prepare as directed, thaw 24 hours in the refrigerator, and bake as directed). It can also be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake. This is a mild version, great for kids.
