Tex-Mex Lasagna

Tex-mex lasagna

Quick Notes: I know that this is weird. Noodles with Salsa? Hear me out though. It’s freaking delicious. This Tex-Mex Lasagna is a recipe that I got a long time ago from my friends Allen and Angie. They probably got it from some friends before them as well. You can do this with “oven-ready” lasagna noodles as well, but I’ve done it both ways and much prefer cooking them first so they don’t come out crunchy.

  6. Let sit for ten minutes before serving.  Top with sour cream if you like.
