  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

For the sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups milk

For assembly:

  • 12 lasagna noodles, cooked
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions:

  1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Add in the onion and garlic and cook until softened.
  2. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, and oregano. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add in the black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for 10-15 minutes.

  5. Stir in the salsa and shredded cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the sauce on the bottom.
