D’s Chili and Cheese Lasagne



A Great combination of Italian & Mexican.

I love chili and I love lasagna so this was a nice twist to combine the two. I easily made this as a double batch and made another tray to freeze. It’s an awesome dish to pull out of the freezer, microwave, throw on some Taco Sauce and ready to go!
