Lasagna Picante

By nurseliz

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 large green pepper, chopped (about 1 cup)
• 2 cups Prego® Traditional Italian Sauce or Prego® Tomato Basil & Garlic Italian Sauce
• 1 1/2 cups Pace® Picante Sauce
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 8 flour tortillas (6-inch)
• 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (about 8 ounces)
• 2 cans (2 1/4 ounces each) sliced pitted ripe olives, drained

Preparation

Step 1

1

Heat the oven to 350°F. Cook the beef and pepper in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the beef is well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off any fat.
2

Stir the Italian sauce, 1 cup picante sauce and chili powder in the skillet and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3

Spread the remaining picante sauce in a 3-quart shallow baking dish. Arrange 4 tortillas on the bottom of the dish, overlapping if needed. Layer with half the beef mixture, half the cheese and half the olives. Repeat the layers.
4

Bake for 20 minutes or until the filling is hot and bubbling and the cheese is melted. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Add taco seasoning to meat; may also use ground turkey
