On Matters of my Mexican Lasagna/Taco Casserole


Schelly:
If I were a guy, and I married for food, I'd marry you.



Each time I make it differently, but I usually start with some tortillas, refried beans, salsa, sour cream, and cheese. I also like to add onions, tomatoes and whatever else I find on hand (once I used up some leftover rice, and beans in a casserole...) sometimes. Olives and scallions are nice, too.


And I layer the different ingredients... Usually tortillas, refried beans, sour cream, then salsa. Then on the next layer I omit the salsa and add tomatoes and onions instead. I often put some garlic salt and chili powder on one of the layers on top of the refried beans. Oh, and don't forget the cheese!





Yes... even I text and cook. :P




I usually bake it at 375 for forty-five minutes, about... sometimes longer, sometimes shorter. I never time it, I just look and see how bubbly and nice it looks, then take it out when it looks fit to my tastes. Usually it's nice to have it set for a while afterwards, because it can be kinda runny right after you remove it from the oven.


Thanks to Schelly for the photography... :)
