    Now you may have heard of "Taco Tuesday", otherwise known as my favorite day of the week, I changed it up with another recipe.

    Maybe I made Taco Tuesday up, but if you've heard of "Meatless Mondays", a slogan to try to decrease your intake of meat for at least one meal a week, it's the same deal.

    This is actually one of my favorite recipes to make and experiment with since it's easy to make and of course is delicious! It's called Mexican lasagna, which I've adapted from one of my favorite food blogs again, Oh She Glows. You can use this for a meatless Monday or taco Tuesday recipe, or have it both nights!
