There is a tradition of Taco Thursday in my apartment;
what’s not like to like about your own tacos + Mexican in general?
but sometimes it’s nice to change up the routine.
This Mexican Lasagna was really easy to make, and SO GOOD.
The no-boil lasagna noodles make this a breeze.

Best part: you can add or subtract whatever you like or don’t like!
