Directions
Southwestern Lasagna, A tasty and easy-to-make family favorite adapted from a Mission Foods recipe., I halved this recipe, but still used 2 tb. taco seasoning and the full can of tomatoes and simply omitted the seasoning salt. Also had some Mexican style quesadilla melting cheese block form that needed to be used up, and that worked well too. An easy dish using ordinary ingredients–cuts into squares very nicely and tastes good. We’re happy–thanks Deb–looking forward to leftovers tomorrow., We loved it, Deb. I mixed the olives with the ground beef before putting lasagna together, though. It still tasted good the next day.
