Taco Lasagna
I love lasagna so finding this Taco Lasagna was awesome! Great Mexican flair! Very filling!
So ooey-gooey creamy cheesy and the Pico de Gallo shinned throughout the dish! I love making my own Pico and the link to mine is below or you can make your own or buy some already made! House smelled amazing! Great dinner!
Recipe adapted from Smart School House
1½ pounds ground beef or turkey
1 packet taco seasoning
1 cup water
Pico de Gallo Link To My Homemade Pico or store bought
4 Tablespoons butter
2 cups heavy cream
Cayenne Pepper, to taste
salt & pepper, to taste
3 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
1 package taco size flour tortillas
Preheat oven to 400°
In a skillet brown and crumble meat. Drain.
Return to skillet and add taco seasoning and water. Boil 4 minutes. Lower heat and simmer until liquid is absorbed.
In a separate pot make the cheese. Melt the butter and whisk in heavy cream. Season with Cayenne pepper, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Stir or whisk in 2 cups cheese until well blended.
In a sprayed 9x13 baking dish layer enough tortilla to cover bottom and then add 1/3 taco meat, 1/3 cheese sauce and then sprinkle with Pico de Gallo.
Repeat layers 2 more times.
Sprinkle remaining 1 cup cheese on top.
Bake 20 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Serve.
