La Paloma Salsa's Kickin' Mexican Lasagna

One of the outstanding comfort foods we enjoy this time of year is this classic modernized Mexican dish.  Of course, what makes this dish special is our thick and chunky La Paloma Salsa, which can stand up to the heating instructions and not turn into a watery mess.  You don't need picante, tomato sauce or enchilada sauce to make this meal, you just need a chunky, all natural salsa! 

And get the kids involved!  They will love to make this lasagna recipe as the general rules of preparing this dish are that there are no rules.  Make it in any combination and as messy as you want; the kids will love it!
