Taco Lasagna
If I had to choose a favorite type of ethnic food, I couldn’t do it. My husband would probably tell you his is Italian with Mexican/Latin in second. I personally love it all – as long as it doesn’t have lima beans! 😉 This Taco Lasagna is easy enough for a weeknight meal and is a nice change from the regular tacos or burritos.

Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- ½ cup chopped green pepper
- ½ cup chopped onion
- ⅔ cup water
- 1 envelope taco seasoning
- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained, 15 oz.
- 1 can Mexican-style diced tomatoes, undrained, 14.5 oz
- 6 8-inch flour tortillas
- 1 can refried beans, 16 oz.
- 3 cups Mexican cheese blend, divided, 12 oz.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- In a large skillet, cook beef, green pepper and onion until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add water and taco seasoning – bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 3-4 minutes. Stir in black beans and tomatoes. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
- Place 2 tortillas in a greased 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Spread half of the beans on top of the tortillas. Top with half of the beef mixture. Sprinkle with 1 cup of cheese. Repeat layers. Top with remaining tortillas and cheese. Cover and bake at 350° F. for 30 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting.
Notes
- Use plain diced tomatoes if the ones with peppers are too spicy for your family.
