RECIPE BY Gooseberry Patch

We give lasagna a Mexican flavor in this recipe. Corn tortillas take the place of lasagna noodles; Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese replace mozzarella; and chopped jalapeño, cumin, cilantro and avocado give it its south-of-the-border flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound ground mild pork sausage
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 2/3 cup canned diced tomatoes and green chiles
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 (10 3/4-oz.) can cream of celery soup
  • 1 (10 3/4-oz.) can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 (10-oz.) can enchilada sauce
  • 18 (6-inch) corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 tomato, seeded and diced
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Optional: 1 avocado, chopped
