    Yeah, I don't know what to call this but Tortilla Lasagna will do. Maybe we can get the name Laspizzadilla to catch on because it is the shape of a pizza, the layers of lasagna and the flavours and ingredients of a beef quesadilla! This, just as the name suggests, combines three great comfort foods; Tortillas, lasagna, and pizza. I created this because I felt bored of the same old tacos and also too lazy to make burritos so check this out if you love the taste of tacos but want to switch things up and still have a quick and easy weeknight meal for the whole family will love.

    Ingredients
      

    Filling

    • 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil For the Pan
    • 1.5 Pounds Lean Ground Beef
    • 1 Onion Diced
    • 2 Cloves Garlic Minced
    • 1 Jar Salsa 16 oz or 473 ml
    • ½ Bell Pepper Diced (red, yellow or orange)

    Other

    • 6 10" Wheat Tortilla Wraps
    • 2 Cups Cheddar Cheese Shredded
    • 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil To Brush on Tortilla before baking
    • 1 Teaspoon Salt To sprinkle on top tortilla before baking

    Topping

    • ½ Cup Cheddar Cheese Shredded
    • 1 Cup Sour Cream Served on the side or top
    • ¼ Cup Parsley or Cilantro diced, optional

    Instructions
     

    Preheat Oven to 400°F

      Filling

      • In a Large Pot on medium heat: Add oil. Brown the beef and break apart into small pieces. Add in garlic, onion and peppers. Saute until tender, about 3 minutes.
      • Add Salsa and Taco seasoning packet. Let Simmer for 5 minutes. The Taco seasoning has cornstarch in it, so the mixture will thicken as it cooks. While it simmers, shred the cheese.

      Assemble

      • On a pizza pan: Place 1 tortilla wrap Spoon on sauce in an even layer leaving a 1 inch boarder sauce free, Sprinkle Cheese on top. Repeat this step until all the sauce is gone. The top layer should just have a bare tortilla.
      • Use a pastry brush to apply a small amount of canola oil to the top tortilla and to any exposed tortilla on the other layers. (this will help it crisp up!) Sprink with salt.
      • Bake for 15 minutes, add cheese on top and then bake for 5 more minutes.

      Serve

      • Cut into 8 equal pieces (cut like you would a pizza) Sprinkle fresh herbs on top, if desired.
      • Serve with sour cream or other favourite sauce.
