Mexican Lasagna
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds ground chicken breast or ground turkey
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 (14-oz) can stewed tomatoes or fire-roasted chopped tomatoes
1 cup medium heat taco sauce
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained
1 cup frozen corn kernels
Salt/Pepper
8 (8 inch) spinach, sun dried tomato, cheese, or regular flour tortillas (I buy a package of all and mix them to make it colorful. You can freeze them and use when you need them.)
2 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar or shredded pepper jack or Mexican cheese mix
Jalapenos - as much as you like drained or fresh (I add them b/c my son & I LOVE them)
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil ? twice around the pan. Add chicken or turkey and season with chili powder, cumin, and red onion. Brown the meat, 10 minutes. Add stewed tomatoes or fire-roasted chopped tomatoes and taco sauce. Add black beans and corn. Heat the mixture through, 2 to 3 minutes then season to your taste.
Coat a baking dish with remaining extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 tablespoon oil. Cut the tortillas in half or quarters to make them easy to layer with. Build lasagna in layers of meat and beans, then tortillas, then cheese. Repeat: meat, tortilla, cheese again. Bake lasagna 15-20 minutes until cheese is brown and bubbly.
Let sit 5-7 minutes and top with Fat Free or Low Fat sour cream and salsa. YUMMY!
ENJOY!
