DIRECTIONS
- TACO FIESTA LASAGNA FAMILY MEAL: Have all ingredients for the lasagna lined up and ready for assembly.
- In a 4" half hotel pan assemble lasagna in this order: • Spread 4 oz of marinara across the bottom of pan • Place 4 tortillas on top of marinara evenly • Spread 8 oz of meat sauce over tortillas • Spread 3 oz of ricotta over meat sauce • Sprinkle caramelized onions over the meat sauce • Sprinkle cheese over the onions evenly
- Repeat process 4 more times in the same order. Add your last 4 remaining tortillas, followed by 8oz of meat sauce and .5 cuts on Monterey cheese.
- Cover the hotel pan with aluminum foil and bake for 35 minutes at 350°F. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese gets golden brown. Allow an additional 30-45 minutes to cool before cutting.
- Serve 4 slices of lasagna with 4, 2 cup portions of Caesar salad and 4, 16 oz portions of horchata or Agua fresca.
- TACO FIESTA MEAT SAUCE: Heat up 2 tablespoons of canola oil in a sauce pot over medium high heat and add the ground beef. With a wooden spoon, break up the ground beef and stir it every couple of minutes until all the ground beef is broken up and it is cooked completely.
- Add the Taco Fiesta Black Beans, lowing the heat to a medium heat. Add the taco seasoning and marinara and stir the meat sauce to dissolve and incorporate the seasoning. Once the sauce comes to a simmer, turn off the heat.
- Strain the meat sauce in a china cap to rid any excess liquid. Do not throw away. The liquid is good for making rice.
