Finally got a chance to make our recipe idea: International Lasagna. It is a lasagna using all kinds of different nationalities. It has in it:
Corn Tortilla
Kale (from the garden)
Ricotta with egg, Mexican cheese blend, and Sazon spice
Linguica
Black Beans
Diced Tomatoes
Taco Sauce
The cheese mixture. Ricotta, egg, kale, Mexican cheese blend, and one packet of Sazon spices.
Browning up the ground linguica.
First layer of corn tortilla "noodles".
Black beans and diced tomatoes added to the linguica...and another packet of Sazon of course!
First Layer of meat.
More "noodles"
Layer of cheese.
Final layer topped with Mexican cheese blend.

Too bad there weren't scents on the internet.
Finished!
Plated

The results.
VERY GOOD…but a little lacking on the flavor. We added taco sauce and it made it perfect. So next time, another packet of Sazon in the cheese, maybe chorico instead of the linguica, and some picante sauce in between layers. Definitely another go at this recipe is warranted!
