This was good, however I made some changes as suggested by previous posts. I added taco seasoning to turkey meat, a chopped green pepper, a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles, and a can of whole kernal corn. I cooked the refried beans with the turkey meat. When layering I added cheese to each layer. Next time I will use black beans instead of refried beans and either mix some salsa with the meat or pour some on each layer instead of just the top layer per the recipe. Overall, good and will make again.

This was a good recipe. I used D's Famous Salsa, leftover from the Chicken Salad Wraps a few nights ago. It ended up being almost to runny. I think next time, I'll forgo the 2.5c of water, and just use the salsa. Otherwise, a delicious recipe!

My husband and I enjoyed this new twist on regular lasagna. I reduced the recipe to six servings and put it in an 8X8X2 inch pan. I used a full can of refried beans to make the layers a little thicker and added a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese to each layer. I also used taco seasoning instead of the other seasonings and supplemented that with a sprinkle of cajun seasoning and garlic powder. As recommended by another reviewer, I soaked the lasagna noodles for twenty minutes which reduced the overall baking time to approximately 45 minutes. I'll likely make this recipe again!

This was very good . my whole family enjoyed it. I did add the half a can of tomatoe sauce to refried beans as well as diced tomatoes and added the rest to the salsa mixture. I may try using tortillas instead of lasagna noodles next time.

Instead of re-fried beans we used black beans. It was great.

This was a great recipe however I used ready to bake lasagne noodles. I also would change and add the salsa and cheese to each layer. I did add black beans and cilantro and like everyone else I added taco seasoning.

Have made this several times and always enjoyed it. I have tried different typts of salsa and the one I like best it the fruitier varieties. Pineapple mango or similiar gives it a great flavor!

Satisfying and filling. I added a can of diced tomatoes to the meat (ground turkey) and beans (low-fat). I also added 1/2 of a can of tomato sauce and taco seasoning to the meat. I used no-boil noodles so I omitted the water and added the other half can of tomato sauce to the salsa instead. I layered in the salsa and some cheese and added the sour cream after it was done cooking. My toddler said it was good "zanya" and cleaned her plate and even my mother-in-law liked it!!! Thank-you Shannon (and other reviewers).
