Very high in carbs and had to double the meat but it tasted good. A unique combination of flavors but it still left me longing for more flavor. For us it'll stay on the once every 6-9 months list.

I'm sorry, but this just did not work for me. Ricotta cheese and mexican just don't go together. I tried it, thinking it would be one of those weird combinations that would just 'zing'. But it didn't. I think, if you make this, you should omit the ricotta and eggs and substitute layering some type of mexican cheese in it's place. Possibly mix the mexican cheese with the sour cream and salsa and use it as a layer. Also, you need to spread a little of the meat mixture on the bottom of the dish before beginning your layers. Otherwise, your bottom tortillas will be crunchy and hard, and the others will be soft.

I made this last night, and it was great! My husband had two huge pieces, and said it was definitely a keeper. I did make a few adjustments though: - Sauteed some minced garlic in the skillet with a little olive oil before adding the ground turkey - Added some paprika, onion powder, pepper and cumin to the ground turkey while it was in the skillet -I omitted the green onions, because my husband won’t eat them. -Instead of the can of tomatoes and can of chilis, I added two cans of Rotel with chilis. Because this was a little more than the recipe called for, and was undrained, I only added about ½ cup of water instead of the 2 cups the original recipes calls for. This was the right move, because it was just saucey enough. More water would have turned it into a soupy mess. - I used half part-skim ricotta and half low-fat cottage cheese, to cut down on calories. - And like others had mentioned, I spread the 8 tortillas on a baking sheet and put them in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes while getting the other ingredients ready. This made them nice and baked without being too dry. - Finally, I also added some shredded Mexican cheese to the very top of the lasagna, along with some jalapeno slices. Delicious!! Next time, I might try adding some corn and black beans to the meat mixture, to give it some added veggie substance.

This was easy to make and quite good. I added a can of rotel with lime and cilantro to my meat and also added some of the taco seasoning to the ricotta mixture. Next time I'll add black beans and corn. My kids ate it so I was pleased. I didn't use as much water as called for, just eyeballed it and didn't use the onions either.

This recipe is truly amazing! Of course, I did some variations. I browned about half of the turkey weight with onions and added zucchini but still used the full taco season packet. My husband couldn't stop raving about this. It has a permanent spot on our menu. Don't skip the salsa cream. I also used yellow corn tortillas because they were the only thing on hand and I think they helped make this dish. Happy cooking!

Muy Perfecto!!! I loved it. I followed the recipe to a T, and just add sour cream when served. My entire family loved it! It was very fulfilling.

Very good - I omit a star because I changed it a bit after the initial go-around. I didn't care for the ricotta (personal preference) and so used shredded mozz/cheddar instead. Also, I use a little hot salsa in addition to the veggies listed - gives it a little oomph. Good basic recipe, though, and I do use it quite frequently. It's also good cut in small squares as an app on game day!

This was an easy meal to prepare and my entire family LOVED it! Even my picky eater asked for THIRDS! :) Only thing I changed is adding shredded Mexican blend of Kraft cheese on top to melt & brown. We have decided this will be one of our 'family favorites'! Thanks for sharing!

This is an awesome dish and super easy. I had to make a few changes because of what I had on hand but I have know doubt it would be delicious as written (except for the water I would take this out completely). Mine was really runny and I didn't add any water just the juice from the tomatoes. An added plus was my 5 and 2 year old loved it. The changes I made were sour cream instead of ricotta, no eggs, I added a layer of black beans (drained), and 1 can of Mexicorn instead of the green chiles because I didn't have any and last I used whole wheat tortillas. Really good!!!!

This was an easy dish to prepare. The flavor was yummy, even with low fat dairy products. I went by the recipe except for swapping out the tomatoes & chilies for 1 can of Rotel. I wasn't sure what to do with all the extra liquid in the meat mixture, but hubby dumped it over the top & it didn't come out soggy. I think I'll use corn tortillas next time...reminds me more of enchiladas.

This was good but I did adjust the amount of taco seasoning (I thought it might be too much because I did not have quite 1.5 lbs. of meat). The rest of the family (picky guy and 4 yr old) really enjoyed it. We will make again.

This was delicious. I did cut back on the water only use maybe 1/2 cup. I also used extra lean beef because I had that on hand. I added a little taco seasoning to the ricotta mixture and a layer of pepper jack cheese in the middle and on top. Very good the next day, too! Quick and easy.

Easy and very good! I reduced the water to 1/3 cup and substituted 3/4 C. salsa for the chiles. Simmer for a few minutes for the meat mixture to thicken. Other than that I followed the directions and the result was great! Good leftovers.

This was a wonderful, easy, quick recipe! The only change I made was to use Gimme Lean meat substitute instead of turkey. I used whole wheat flour tortillas, and I thought they soaked up the juices well without getting too soggy. I also added shredded pepper jack cheese to the top (to me, casseroles like this always need SOMETHING on top). This recipe is definitely a winner, and I'll be making it again!

This one's a keeper. I did take some reviewer's advice and did not add the water. I also added a layer of refried beans,layered shredded cheese and topped with cheese. I also toasted 8 inch whole wheat tortillas a little. I also liked it topped with guacamole, salsa & sour cream.

The whole family loved it. I followed the original recipe and it was great. I will probably play with it next time, but I see that more as "what toppings do you like on your tacos?" My husband scrambled the leftovers with eggs and a little shredded cheese - tasted just like a great breakfast burrito.
