One dish meals are my favorite! During a busy week it’s great to have easy recipes that don’t require a lot of preparation or a lot of separate dishes to prepare and cook!
I made this for the first time on the weekend and my kids (one who is super picky!) and my hubby loved this dish! As a Mom who is always trying to make meals that everyone enjoys, when they give me the thumbs up on a recipe…. I say Yay !!….or should I say Olé??!!!!!
I’m so thrilled to share this flavorful and cheesy south of the border lasagna recipe as a General Mills Old El Paso Ambassador!
