    • 🥩 1 pound extra-lean ground beef

  • Canned Goods

    • 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
    • 1 (2 ounce) can sliced black olives

  • Spices and Seasoning

    • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder

  • Pasta

    • 12 dry lasagna noodles

  • Liquids

STEPS

1

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.

2

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.

3

Cover tightly with foil. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 1/2 hours, or until noodles are tender.

4

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.
