A recipe for Southwestern Lasanga that I found on a Taste of Home recipe card. The original recipe didn't call for it, but I added a can of kidney beans; black beans could also be used.

This lasagna is the perfect comfort food. It's hearty, cheesy, and flavorful. I love that it's made with whole wheat tortillas, which makes it a little healthier than traditional lasagna. I highly recommend this recipe!

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this lasagna with tofu instead of chicken. It turned out great! The tofu absorbed the flavors of the sauce and spices perfectly. I would definitely make this again.

This lasagna is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a great dish to make ahead of time and freeze for later. I highly recommend this recipe!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my lasagna turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened. I would not recommend this recipe.

This lasagna was a disaster! The tortillas didn't cook evenly and the whole thing fell apart when I tried to serve it. I would not recommend this recipe.

I thought this lasagna was just okay. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste. I would probably add more spices next time.

This lasagna was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best lasagna he's ever had. I would probably use less chili powder next time, but overall it was a good recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of lasagna, but this southwestern version was really good! The corn and black beans added a nice sweetness and texture to the dish, and the spices gave it a nice kick. I would definitely make this again.
