Spicy and flavorful lasagna that will make your taste buds dance with joy.
Ingredients:
  • 10 uncooked lasagna noodles
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon ground red chilies
  • 1 container (15 ounces) ricotta cheese
  • 1 jar (24 oz) salsa
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (4 ounces)
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare noodles according to package instructions.
  • In a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, sauté beef, onion, cilantro, and red chilies for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is browned. Drain any excess fat.
  • Start by creating a layer in the baking dish with 5 noodles. Top it off with 1 1/2 cups of the beef mixture, 1 cup of ricotta cheese, and 1 1/4 cups of salsa. Repeat this layering process with the remaining noodles, beef mixture, ricotta cheese, and salsa. Finish it off by sprinkling Monterey Jack cheese on top.
  • Bake without a cover for 35 to 40 minutes until piping hot. Rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
