I love pasta. That’s not really a secret, right? One of my favorite pasta dishes is lasagna but I rarely make it because I don’t have time. But this baked taco lasagna is really easy and fast to put together, even on a weeknight.

You can even assemble it earlier in the day, pop it in the fridge, and toss it in the oven when you get home in the evening.

Baked Taco Lasagna Recipe

This taco lasagna was full of flavor and cheesy goodness. The kids were skeptical at first because tacos and lasagna just don’t belong together in their world. But I starved them for hours so they’d give it a try. I kid, I kid (not really). But they loved it! Even the teenager, who was the most skeptical of all, cleaned his plate and asked for seconds! That’s a win in my world, y’all.
