Mexican Taco Lasagna Recipe – Saucy and Cheesy!

Cinco de Mayo is celebrated on May 5th in the United States as a way for us to celebrate the Mexican culture.  It’s actually not the real reason for Cinco de Mayo, but it has become an event that many look forward to each year.

The United States is made up of a unique blend of food from cultures all over the world. We tend to think of food in “groups” and we all have our favorite group.  We rarely say, “let’s go eat tacos tonight,” but we will say, “let’s go get Mexican.”

So here is a quick and easy Mexican Taco Lasagna meal that you can easily whip up for a tasty Cinco de Mayo and celebrate a little Mexican culture in your house! We have replaced traditional lasagna noodles with flour tortillas and the result is scrumptious.

Gather Your Ingredients:

  • Gound Beef
  • Onion
  • Taco Seasoning
  • Tomato sauce
  • Flour Tortillas
  • Shredded Jack Cheese
  • Sour Cream
  • Fresh Tomato
  • Shredded lettuce
