I thought I should really create other Mexican dishes to add into the Mexican category here at Feistycook. Thankfully with Mexican dishes, I noticed that take out or add an ingredient or two, you’d still have the same base ingredients yet come up with totally different dishes. I guess it depends on how you cook a dish. So let’s cook Mexican Lasagna.. First, we slightly fry up 12 corn tortillas.

Layer the 6 corn tortillas… Spread out half of the ground beef and refried beans mixture on top of the corn tortillas. Add 1/2 cup of salsa on top, then diced scallions, then diced tomatoes. Oooohhhhhhhh, Ay Papi! Mexican Lasagna : Feistycook
