WEEKNIGHT MEXICAN CHICKEN LASAGNA
A fabulously easy and delicious take on a favorite - this lasagna is full of Mexican flavors and uses layers of corn tortillas in place of noodles. Easy to adapt and personalize - try adding sauteed veggies, Spanish rice, diced jalapeno, or even switching out the red salsa for green!

CHICKEN MEXICAN LASAGNA
Had just a few things in the fridge the other night and came up with this. Surprisingly, it was really good and even my DSs ate every bit on their plates. I used more than 2 cups of cheese however, because in my house, everything goes better with cheese! I topped this with guacomole, more sour cream, more cheese, lettuce, chopped tomatoes and onions. I also served it with refried beans to round it out. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
