This lasagna has a smokey flavor that reminds me of BBQ. It uses corn tortillas instead of pasta. I served it to my family at Christmas and it was a big hit.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 by 13 inch baking pan. In large skillet cook beef and onion until meat is no longer pink. Drain and stir in green pepper. Season meat mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Stir together cheeses. Set aside.
- 2. Pour 1/4 cup BBQ sauce in bottom of pan and spread evenly. Lay 3 lasagna noodles over sauce, overlapping them as necessary. Spoon 1/3 of meat mixture over noodles. Pour another 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce evenly over meat. Sprinkle with 1/3 of cheese mixture. Repeat layers until ingredients are used up. You should be ending with cheese.
- 3. Bake uncovered for 50-60 minutesuntil lightly browned and well heated throughout. Let lasagna stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with garlic toast and a green salad.
Tips:
- Choose the right lasagna noodles. No-boil lasagna noodles are the easiest to use, as they do not require pre-cooking. However, if you prefer a more traditional lasagna, you can use regular lasagna noodles, which must be boiled before assembling the lasagna.
- Make sure your BBQ sauce is flavorful. The BBQ sauce is the star of this lasagna, so make sure it is packed with flavor. You can use your favorite store-bought BBQ sauce, or make your own using a recipe from the internet or a cookbook.
- Don't skimp on the cheese. Cheese is what makes lasagna so rich and decadent. Use a combination of ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese for the best flavor and texture.
- Let the lasagna rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set. Let the lasagna rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

BBQ lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a casual get-together or a special occasion. With its smoky BBQ sauce, tender lasagna noodles, and melted cheese, this lasagna is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
