Hi! I hope everybody had a great Cinco de Mayo. I’m not sure why Cinco de Mayo is such a big deal here in the U.S. considering it has to do with Mexico winning some battle. I guess it’s just an excuse for us Americans to have a ridiculous amount of alochol and delicious food. Anyways, I am not complaining.
Why am I talking about Cinco de Mayo when it was almost a week ago? Good question! Funny you ask…I may have forgotten to share the best mexican dish ever made in the entire Universe.
layers=loves
This recipe is great for people who love mexican food and people who absolutely despise mexican food. I feel like a corny ad but it’s really true!! This dish can be easily adjusted to your culinary preferences. It can be super spicy or tame and mild. Either way, the layers and the texture of this stuff just make you want to melt like that gorgeous cheese.
*Drool*
Go ahead, go to the grocery store and pick up some tortillas and salsa.
MEXICAN LASAGNA
6-8 tortillas
about 8 oz. salsa
about 8 oz. of your favorite Mexican cheese
about 8-10 oz. boneless skinless chicken, diced and cooked
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spread a layer of salsa on bottom of 8 x 8 square pan, place on full tortilla on top of salsa, cut another tortilla into triangles, placing a triangle into each corner. After that, drop some of the chicken on top. Then sprinkle with some of the cheese.
- Repeat layers (still putting triangle pieces of tortilla in corners)
- When layers are to the top, place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Sorry for the blurry pictures! Apparently I was too excited to keep my hands still
What’s your favorite mexican dish??
