The first time I made this dish was in 2011. I hosted a Cinco de Mayo play date and made this amazing dish for lunch. I like to call it “Mexican lasagna” because of the layering. Everyone raved about how yummy it was. If you want to make something festive tonight that’s not so complicated, try this.
It is dee-lish, and easy peasy. You’ll need a lasagna pan (this is my favorite) as well as a skillet to cook the meat. The best meals are the ones that don’t leave you with a ton of dirty dishes!
