Rachael must love her Mexican lasagna because she has several versions. I found this highly-rated recipe on the Food Network. This is broken into simple steps. The spinach flavored tortillas really make this something special. If you like spicy foods, be adventurous and try Jalapeno Cheddar tortillas. *NOTE* If you plan to have leftovers, the reviewers recommend serving the tortillas on the side and not layering with them. The tortillas get will be soggy after sitting in the refrigerator. Doing that makes assembly a snap! :)

Steps:

- Add chicken and season with chili powder, cumin, and red onion.
- Brown the meat, 5 minutes.
- Add taco sauce or stewed or fire roasted tomatoes.
- Add black beans and corn.
- Heat the mixture through, 2 to 3 minutes then season with salt, to your taste.
- ASSEMBLE LASAGNA: Coat a shallow baking dish with remaining extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 tablespoon oil.
- Cut the tortillas in half or quarters to make them easy to layer with.
- Build lasagna in layers of meat and beans, then tortillas, then cheese.
- Repeat: meat, tortilla, cheese again.
