Taco Lasagna

Ground turkey taco lasagna seasoned to perfection, and made easily!

This taco lasagna recipe is made with ground turkey and packed with spices

I am currently having a lasagna moment! I love all things lasagna right about now. If you remember correctly, I just made the seafood lasagna a few weeks ago. AND I’m sure no one could forget about my Philly Cheesesteak lasagna right? Well guess what? I’m back with another winner, and this time it’s a ground turkey recipe (everyone jump up for joy!)! That’s right y’all, I made the most delicious ground turkey taco lasagna recently, and my family went crazy. They LOVED IT! I had gotten so many request, that I decided to share the recipe with you! So time to get comfortable, and check out how I make this amazing taco lasagna!

This taco lasagna is a unique twist on a classic recipe. The effort to make this delicious dish is so worth it!

So first things first.. YES!! I really made this recipe with ground turkey! If you’re a die hard ground beef fan, it can be used, but seriously ground turkey is amazing in this recipe. It’s not too greasy, and  I add nice amount of vegetable oil for flavor, AND to keep it from getting dry (because we all know that ground turkey can get dry).

The ground turkey is cooked until done, and seasoned with taco seasoning. I also toss in some red onions, canned tomatoes (if you like it spicy you can add Rotel instead!) garlic, and yummy cilantro.

You already know that my turkey lasagan is loaded with cheese as well. I like to use a combination of Sargentos 6 Cheese Italian Blend, and Sharp Cheddar cheese for this easy ground turkey taco lasagna recipe!

    Hello and thanks much for this recipe. I made this for house guests and it went over very well. I used ground beef instead of turkey though. I’m sure it would be equally as good with turkey. I followed the recipe precisely and might make it a little spicier next time. Otherwise as noted, very good and easy recipe. Thanks again!

    Going to make this for my family tonight. I’ve been trying to push more veggies on them. Any suggestions for a good veggie to have on the side?

    This was delicious. The family was floored and complements came for days. I was going to make a taco salad and this recipe appeared out of nowhere, so, I took advantage of my good luck. Thank you
