Ingredients

12 servings

•

1 pound extra-lean ground beef
•

1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
•

2 teaspoons dried oregano
•

1 teaspoon ground cumin
•

0.75 teaspoon garlic powder
•

12 dry lasagna noodles

•

2.5 cups water
•

2.5 cups salsa
•

2 cups sour cream
•

0.75 cup chopped green onions
•

1 (2 ounce) can sliced black olives
•

1 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese

Instructions

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain off excess fat. In a large bowl, combine the cooked beef, refried beans, oregano, cumin and garlic powder.
Place four of the uncooked lasagna noodles in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread half of the beef mixture over the noodles. Top with 4 more uncooked noodles and the remaining half of the beef mixture. Cover with remaining noodles. Combine the water and the salsa in a medium bowl, and pour over all.
Cover tightly with foil. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 1/2 hours, or until noodles are tender.
In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream, green onions and olives. Spoon over casserole, and top with shredded cheese. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
