Easy Lasagna

This was kind of a last minute craving. The recipe was easy and it tasted delish!


You will need:
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground sausage
1 box of "No Boil" lasagna noodles
1 small container of ricotta
1 large bag of mozzarella
1 jar of your favorite tomato sauce
1 can of diced tomatoes, undrained


Preheat oven to 400. Brown the beef and sausage. Drain and add jar of tomato sauce and canned tomatoes to the pan. Combine cheeses in a large bowl. Spoon the meat and sauce mixture into a greased casserole dish. Top with a layer of uncooked noodles and then a layer of the cheese mixture. Continue this process until you run out of room! Top with more cheese and bake for 30 minutes or until noodles are tender. 



**Next time I will add more sauce. Enjoy!




EASY Chicken and Black Bean Enchiladas

Previously, I made Turkey and Bean Enchilada Casserole, but this time I decided to make the real deal. I bought some red enchilada sauce at Trader Joe's and wanted to put it to use. These were SO easy and somewhat healthy.



You will need:
One bottle of Trader Joe's Enchilada Sauce
8 whole wheat tortillas
1 small can of diced green chili peppers
1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
Mexican Cheese
One rotisserie chicken, shredded 


Combine chicken, beans, chilies, half the enchilada sauce and a handful of cheese in a large bowl. Mix until consistent. Fill each tortilla with the mixture and roll it up like a burrito. Place seam side down in the large, greased baking pan. Continue with the remaining tortillas. Top with the rest of the sauce and cheese. Bake covered for 30 minutes on 350. Then uncover and bake for an addition 10 minutes.

**Serve with Spanish rice and enjoy!
