Southwestern Lasagna

Lasagna is usually considered a purely Italian dish, but stop and think about it for a second. Those layers of lasagna noodles, tomatoes, and cheese are just begging for experimentation, so why not try out the influence of another tomato-and-cheese-infused food tradition: the southwestern U.S.A.! This Southwestern Lasagna swaps out Parmesan for a Mexican cheese blend and adds southwestern spices, black beans, corn and onions for a dish that is not only tasty, it’s vegetarian, too!
