Recipe to try!

Ever since I stopped doing take out and cooking dinner every night I am always on the hunt for a new recipe. And just the other day I found this one on AllRecipes.com. It’s fantastic. I just made it last night and let me tell you…its GOOOOD. Just one thing, let it cool down before eating. The roof of my mouth is still burning.

It’s a Mexican Lasagna and it’s fantastic. Here is the recipe for you…give it a try, only let it sit after cooking for a few minutes to set. Otherwise it’s a real mess on the plate. LOL.

ENJOY!

Mexican Lasagna

1 pound extra lean ground beef
2 teaspoon dried oregano
¾ teaspoon garlic powder
2 ½ cups sour cream
1 (2 ounce) can sliced black olives
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
1 teaspoon ground cumin
12 dry lasagna noodles
2 ½ cups salsa
¾ cup chopped green onions
1 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain off excess fat. In a large bowl, combine the cooked beef, refried beans, oregano, cumin and garlic powder. Place four of the uncooked lasagna noodles in the bottom of a 9x12 inch baking dish. Spread half of the beef mixture over the noodles. Top with 4 more uncooked noodles and the remaining half of the beef mixture. Cover with remaining noodles. Combine the water and the salsa in a medium bowl and pour over all. Cover tightly with foil. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 decrees C) for 1 ½ hours, or until noodles are tender. In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, green onions and olives. Spoon over casserole, and top with shredded cheese. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
