Spicy Lasagna

Every time we have a casual get-together or a family celebration we have special dishes that make their way to our dinner table. Lasagna is one of them.  Besides Mexican traditional dishes such as birria, menudo and tamales, a hearty spicy lasagna is one we also include on our party menu.  

Because it’s so filling and layered with so many ingredients, it’s an easy dish to transport and prepare for dinner.  Lasagna is also great for Sunday dinner prep because it keeps and freezes well for a mid week meal when we only have time to re-heat leftovers.

To give this dish a tasty Latin flavor, I’ve incorporated spicy chorizo and a sprinkle of cotija cheese.  To give it extra heat, add chopped jalapeños or a tad more red pepper flakes.  Your family will love this new twist on this classic dish everyone loves.
