LilBitMissty — Thu, 30 Jan 2020 00:46:27 GMT

Mexican Lasagna

1 bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos
1 pound ground beef
1 cup sour cream
1 cup cottage cheese
1 egg
1 pound shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese
1 package taco seasoning
2 -8 oz cans tomato sauce

Brown ground beef and drain. Add sauce and taco mix, simmer on low for 5 minutes. Set aside.

Mix together in a bowl sour cream, cottage cheese, egg, and salt and pepper

In a baking dish crush a thin layer of Doritos, then put in a layer of the cheese mixture, then a layer of sauce. Continue layering ending with cheese.

Bake uncovered at 350 for about 20 to 30 minutes or until the cheese is all melted.

@LilBitMissty Gosh, I had forgotten about this recipe. Thank you for posting. I'm going to make this soon.

And the bonus is most of the ingredients are on sale because of this weekend's Super Bowl.

@LilBitMissty. I'd have to sandwich a layer of green chile in there somewhere. It does so much for a dish like this. Doesn't have to be spicy; comes in mild flavor.

I never heard of that before. I will make it one day, put it in the freezer and eat it in increments when DH is not watching. Ha ha.

I've eaten a Mexican Lasagna that used Flour Tortillas (in place of the the Lasagna Noodles). I think I even had a receipe for it but don't remember running across it in a long while.

I make this one which uses corn tortillas which I also call Mexican Lasagna (but I think it was originally called South of the Border bake):

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups Black beans, canned
1 1/2 cups Corn, frozen kernels
2 Scallions, medium

18 Corn tortillas (6-inch)

4 cups Cheddar or pepper jack cheese (I use packages of shredded Mexican four cheese)
1 Sour cream (for serving)

3 cups Enchilada sauce (I buy 3 cans of medium enchilada sauce)

4 cups Shredded plain rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded

Layer and bake in a 9 x 13 pan covered for 30-45 minutes

I, @BklynKinsey, make this one which uses corn tortillas which I also call Mexican Lasagna (but I think it was originally called South of the Border bake):

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups Black beans, canned, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups Corn, frozen kernels
2 Scallions, medium
18 Corn tortillas (6-inch), cut in half
4 cups Cheddar or pepper jack cheese (I use packages of shredded Mexican four cheese)
1 Sour cream (for serving)
3 cups Enchilada sauce (I buy 3 cans of medium enchilada sauce)
4 cups Shredded plain rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded

Layer and bake in a 9 x 13 pan covered for 30-45 minutes

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9 x 13 inch casserole pan.

Pour ½ cup enchilada sauce into bottom of prepared pan, Spread around with the back of the spoon.

Arrange about a quarter of the tortilla halves on top of the sauce. Sprinkle ½ cup corn, ½ cup beans, 1 cup chicken, 1 cup cheese and ½ cup sauce on top of tortillas. Top with another layer of tortillas, and repeat layering with the same ingredients and tortillas 2 more times. After the last layer of tortillas is placed, top with the remaining 1 cup chicken and 1 cup enchilada sauce. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup cheese on top.

Bake covered in the oven until hot and the cheese is melted, about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake another 10 minutes. Sprinkle chopped scallions on top and serve with sour cream.
