My very yummy taco lasagna

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 envelope taco seasoning
  • 1 can diced tomatoes ( I use homemade canned ones!!!)
  • 24 soft corn tortillas (4 inches)
  • 2 cans (16 ounces) black bean refried beans
  • 3 cups (12 ounces) shredded Mexican cheese blend

Directions

  • In a large skillet, cook the beef, green pepper and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add water and taco seasoning; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Stir in the black beans and tomatoes. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
  • Mix refried beans with approximately 1/2 cup of water.
  • Place eight tortillas in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Spread with half of the refried beans and beef mixture; sprinkle with 1 cup cheese. Repeat layers. Top with remaining tortillas, tomato mixture and cheese.
  • Cover and bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Yield: 9 servings.
