During my WIAW post, I teased you with a few pictures of taco lasagna.
So now it’s probably time to share the recipe … don’t ya think? 
I’ve made this recipe many times in the past few years. It’s very easy, delicious, and feeds an extremely hungry husband! 
Taco Lasagna
Adapted from allrecipes.com recipe.
Serves “12” (or 8, if you and your husband can eat as much as we can!)
Ingredients
- 2 lbs lean ground beef (ground turkey or chicken could easily be substituted … but my husband wouldn’t go for it!)
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 (1.25 oz) packages taco seasoning mix (I use low sodium)
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 15-18 small flour tortillas (Recipe calls for 18, but you could easily cut the number down. Original recipe also calls for corn tortillas, but I prefer flour.)
- 24 oz. salsa
- 16 oz. light sour cream
- 3-4 cups of shredded cheese – blend of Cheddar and Monterey Jack (use as much or as little as you want!)
Directions
- Brown your meat in a big skillet. In the meantime, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Drain your meat.
- Put the meat back in the skillet over medium-low heat. Add water, taco seasoning, chili powder, and garlic.
- Simmer for about 10 minutes (or 5, if you are impatient like me! ).
- Spray 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray.
- Place 5-6 tortillas in the bottom of the dish.
- Add 1/3 of the salsa on top of the tortillas and spread evenly.
- Add 1/2 of the meat mixture and spread.
- Add 1/2 of the sour cream and spread.
- Add about 1/3 of the cheese.
- Repeat layers … 5-6 tortillas, then 1/3 of the salsa, 1/2 of the meat, 1/2 of the sour cream, and 1/3 of the cheese.
- Top with remaining tortillas. Spread the remaining salsa over the tortillas, and top with the rest of the cheese.
- Place in the oven for about 30 minutes, or until cheese is all melted.
This is definitely a favorite in our house. It has huge flavor without having too much spice.
It may not look super pretty …
… but who cares about how it looks when it tastes SO good??
And my favorite recipes always make leftovers.
This was lunch and dinner for both of us the next day … plus one more lunch on top of that!
You need to try this. I know you’ll be a satisfied customer.
Question for ya …
Do you like Mexican food? What are some of your favorite Mexican dishes?
Other than this taco lasagna, I also really like chicken fajitas. Yum! 
Do I like Mexican food? Do I like Mexican food? Girl, I would lay myself down in a bed of guacamole every night if offered the chance.
Seriously, when you’re raised in Texas, it’s pretty hard not to like Mexican food. It’s EVERYWHERE and it’s MIRACULOUS.
Your taco lasagne looks like it’s right up my Mexican-food-lovin’ alley.

can your hubs really tell its ground turkey? maybe thats why I love the fact my hubby cant cook, he doesn’t even realize what I am subbing in the meals. I’ve used greek yogurt as sour cream before and he didn’t notice! I love it
This meal looks super tasty by the way! Love all that cheese!!!!

Kat, I think he would notice a “meat swap” haha. There’s some “tricks” I can pull, but subbing turkey for beef is NOT one of them!!
sounds amazing! i’m gonna try with beans!

Yay! I cant wait to try this – I love your recipes because your hubby is so similar to mine, even though i am a healthy eater when I make stuff like this he doesnt do the “healthy versions” (e.g. ground chicken or turkey)
Thank you for sharing!
