Trying a New Recipe

My husband and I try to make something new every week. Last week, it was rutabagas grilled, which were delish! I had never had a rutabaga before. Bob makes almost everything on his Traeger Grill. We swear he loves it more than he loves us. For Father's Day, he wanted a canopy for over the grill (which he got). AND he rubs it down with olive oil after it cools down. 

Tonight, we decided to try a Mexican Lasagna. We couldn't find the recipe we looked at on Pinterest, so we did our own thing. It was very good and not a drop was left!

Mexican Lasagna

1 pound of hamburger or ground turkey
1 can of El Paso Refried Beans
1 envelop of El Paso Taco Seasoning
4 large soft flour tortilla shells
8 oz. of Mexican shredded cheese
White queso dip
Black Olives
Pace Picante Sauce
Sour cream (individual adds)
Guacamole (individual adds)

Brown hamburger/turkey in skillet. Add the taco seasoning, then the refried beans. In a round dish (that can go in the oven) put a tortilla shell on the bottom. Layer the meat/bean mixture, then shredded cheese and picante sauce. Make 4 layers. On the top layer, we used some white queso dip and more shredded cheese. Oh! And black olives.

Bake at APT (all purpose temperature 😀) 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Cut into 8 pieces. Top with sour cream and guacamole (if you would like). Enjoy!!!

We had tortilla chips to 'clean up' our plates. We had enough for 5 of us with this recipe. One was a 21 year old man, too! 

The recipe is not an expensive one to make. It was quick and easy to make and to clean up after!
