    Mexican Lasagna

    Published: Dec 19, 2023 by Calvin Allen · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

    Warrior Casserole was one of my favorite dishes growing up. Honestly, I want to say this year that I learned that most people would probably call it Mexican lasagna. Due to it having layers of tortillas, meat, cheese, and sauce. Where all the flavors come together for an amazing taste that the whole family will love Mexican lasagna.

    Why we love it 

    This meal has an amazing flavor that you can easily change up by adding something to it or by simply changing the type of cream soup that you use, see variations for some options. It is really easy to make and can make sure that you don't have corn tortillas that go bad. It is really simple to make as well you just need to cook up some portion with some onions and then add sauce and heat it. Once you have that it is just a matter of putting down a few layers and cooking it and then your masterpiece will be ready 

    The ingredients and what they are for:

    Tortillas- make the base of the lasagna and take the place of the noodles 

    Cream of mushroom- is the sauce for the dish

    Ground beef - is the protein for the meal and adds a nice beefy flavor 

    Onion - add to the flavor 

    Variations 

    Chose a different protein - you could make chicken instead of beef. You could also make more of a breakfast version by using eggs and sausage. You could also make a vegetable version or mushrooms.

    Add some spice - you could also add some jalapenos or peppers to make it more into the Mexican Lasagna version 

    Choose a different soup you could all so use cream of chicken instead of cream of mushroom those are two that we have used but I’m sure that you could use others as well  

    Choose different tortillas; corn tortillas are what we have had the best success with add have tasted best but you can also use flour tortillas. There are all kinds of tortillas out there pick what you like and give it a try,
