Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Brown Ground Beef: In a deep cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef. Break it up into small pieces while cooking and stir frequently. Drain any excess grease.
- Add Seasoning and Tomatoes: Once the ground beef is cooked, stir in the taco seasoning mix and the diced tomatoes (with juice).
- Layer Tortillas: Line the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish with half of the corn tortillas, creating a single layer.
- Add Beef Mixture: Spoon the ground beef mixture evenly over the layer of tortillas.
- Add Remaining Tortillas: Top the ground beef mixture with the remaining corn tortillas, creating another layer.
- Add Salsa and Cheese: Spread the salsa evenly over the top layer of tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded Colby cheese (or your preferred Mexican-style cheese) over the salsa.
- Bake the Lasagna: Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
