Cara's Corn Chip Chilli Lasagna

Recipe by: caraanne

Reviews(1)

An excellent hearty and warming family meal. Can be mildly mouthwatering or hot as you dare. It can also be varied ever so slightly by trying different flavoured corn chips/tortilla chips. Try zingy lime or fragrant chilli varieties to suit your own tastes. I have seen chilli lasagna recipes before but always using pasta sheets which doesn't feel very Mexican to me. Serve with a crisp cooling salad dressed with mint, cucumber, yoghurt or soured cream.

Tostada is Spanish for 'toasted' - and in Latin American cuisine tostadas refer to dishes that feature a toasted or deep fried tortilla. Corn tortillas are typically used, but you can use flour ones also.

Fresh Salsa

Recipe by: Cecilia D

Reviews(4)

Fresh ripe tomatoes, chillies, onion, garlic and coriander with a splash of lime juice - all you need to make a delightfully refreshing salsa. Adjust the heat level by experimenting with the amount and type of chillies you use. Jalapeños will give the most heat! Use jarred if you can't find them fresh.
