Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 pounds ground turkey or lean ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • ½ red onion, chopped
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained
  • 1 cup medium heat taco sauce or 1 (14-oz) can stewed or fire roasted tomatoes
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels
  • Salt
  • 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
  • 2½ cups shredded Cheddar or shredded Pepper Jack
  • 2 scallions, finely chopped
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F
  2. Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil-twice around the pan. Add ground turkey or beef 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.
  3. Coat shallow baking dish with the remaining extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 tablespoon. 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. Bake the lasagna 12 to 15 minutes until cheese is brown and bubbly. Top with scallions and I like to also top with sour cream, enjoy!
