Perfect Mexican Lasagna image

I got this recipe from Robin Miller's Quick Fix Meals. I have made this several times and my husband loves it. And it is so easy to make! I usually just buy Tyson's ready cooked chicken breast strips (two 6oz pkgs) pre-seasoned with southwestern spices. I sometimes use multi-grain flour tortillas, when I can find them in the store.

12 ounces cooked chicken, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 3 cups)
1 cup sour cream (regular or low-fat)

I thought this lasagna was okay, but it wasn't as good as I was hoping for. I found it to be a little bland.

This lasagna was a little too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy sausage. Next time I'll use a milder sausage.

The cheese blend in this lasagna is perfect. It's gooey and flavorful, and it pairs perfectly with the beef and sausage.
