Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips
- Ground Beef: I used 90% lean as it has good flavor without excess fat. If using a fattier variety be sure to drain first.
- Taco Seasoning: I used store bought, but homemade is great too if you have it on hand.
- Cheese: Shred it yourself if you have time, as it will melt so much better! Pre-shredded varieties have ingredients like corn starch that can be grainy or overly greasy.
- Taco Sauce: This is the base of our sauce. Use a red vinegar based sauce. I used Ortega.
- No Boil Lasagna Noodles: These cook right in the oven. You can substitute traditional boiled al dente lasagna noodles if desired.
Krystle's Tips: Steal My Culinary School Secrets
- No Dry Noodles: Ensure every noodle is fully covered so it softens. If needed you can spoon some extra sauce around the edges before baking.
- No Sticking: Line pan with nonstick foil or spray with nonstick cooking spray.

This Mexican lasagna with noodles is amazing!!
This lasagna was super easy to make and a huge hit with my family! I know I'll be making it again soon.
So tasty and easy to make! Loved the cheesy layers and taco flavor. The noodles were super convenient. Big hit with my family!
This had such a great flavor. I'll be adding it to our monthly meal rotation.
I have been making this for a while but instead of noodles I use tortillas. I bake in a round casserole so tortillas will fit . Delicious !!
Hi Joanie,
Thanks for sharing your yummy substitution with our community.
looks easy. Since this is Mexican Lasagna, I will hot this up with jalapenos. my question is can I use No-Boil Lasagna Noodles? thank you
Hi Sharyn,
