Maybe I'm going a little crazy with this blogging thing! :)

Claire and I were talking about recipes today... and I thought wouldn't it be fun to have a blog where we were all "owners" and could all write on it and share good recipes or fun kitchen tips and ideas. This way we will all be able to share and we'll all end up with a plethora of dinner ideas ALL the time! :) Just thought it might be fun...

To get the ball rolling I'll post one that has become one of our favorites. My boss gave me this recipe and I fell instantly in love with it. Just emailed it to Claire today! :)


Mexican Lasagna

1 lb. ground turkey (not lean)
1 large onion (chopped)
1 large bell pepper (chopped)
1-2 tbsp. crushed garlic
olive oil

1 package taco seasoning mix
1 can corn
1 can black beans
1 can Mexican-style diced tomatoes
2 cans tomato soup

1 bag of Kraft shredded Mexican cheeses (4 cheese blend)
4 large tortillas

Use a very large skillet. Cover the bottom with olive oil. Sauté the onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Then add the meat until it browns.

Next add the taco seasoning mix, then the rest of the ingredients except the cheese and tortillas. Let simmer about 15 minutes.

Now layer a 9x13 or 10x14 glass pan with first a layer of the sauce, then two of the tortillas, then sauce, then cheese, then the other two tortillas, then sauce, then cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

**Note: I use ground beef and it's just as tasty! Hope you guys like this one!
