Chorizo Lasagna Skillet (a one pot meal)

I made homemade chorizo from the recipe posted on here by Barrie. I froze 2/3 of it, then only used half of the third I didn't freeze for egg and chorizo tacos. Sooooo I needed something else to make with the last unfrozen bit before it went bad. I didn't have everything (or anything) needed for most chorizo-themed recipes on here, but I did have everything I needed to create this dish. It's like a hamburger helper-esque, mexi-italian fusion, and it turned out pretty tasty. Lol

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Heat a large, deep sided sautée pan over medium heat. Add 1 tbs oil. Begin cooking chorizo, breaking up to a crumble as you go.
- 2
When chorizo is half cooked add onion and bell pepper. Cook until onion is translucent. About 5 minutes. Note: If chorizo is lean (mine was because it was homemade) add second tbs of oil along with onion and pepper.
- 3
Stir in beans, crushed tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, oregano and basil. Add salt and pepper to taste, and if desired sugar to taste (used to balance the acidity of tomatoes and heat of other spices).
- 4
Increase heat to medium high. Bring to a vigorous simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- 5
Stir in water and broken lasagna noodles. Bring to a boil. Cover with lid slightly vented. Reduce heat, simmer 20 minutes or until noodles are tender, stirring occasionally. Taste. Adjust salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Add a dash of hot sauce if desired.
- 6
Turn heat off, sprinkle cheese over the top, return lid. Let sit covered 10 to allow cheese to melt and sauce to thicken. Serve topped with sour cream if desired. Enjoy!

Simple Oven Baked Spinach Lasagna Simple Oven Baked Spinach Lasagna
When I first starting blogging I had posted a Lasagna recipe, that was given to my mom from a good Italian friend she had in the States. Today, I am posting another Lasagna recipe, but not with meat but with SPINACHHHHH yummm.I went to our local supermarket to check out the fresh tomatoes they had but I have to be honest, the tomatoes were not looking to good. The truth is tomatoes are not in season, so I guess this is why they were looking a bit funky. So, this time my sauce is store bought, works just as good, and the lasagna tasted just as delicious.I am hoping to start my own veggie garden towards the end of next month. Hoorayy!! I have already decided which seeds I would like to plant, and I hoping to be able to purchase my off-ground box. 🙂 I found the perfect spot in the garden so that if we have a snow/thunderstorm/hail or any kind of storm it won’t break it like it did last time. This off- ground box will be much smaller than the previous, starting small just to be on the safe side.I hope you enjoy this recipe, let me know how it comes out if you decide to make it!!!! 🙂 Foodzesty -
Slow Cooker Lasagna Slow Cooker Lasagna
This recipe is a little more involved than most slow cooker recipes. I actually prefer to prepare this recipe the night before, then stick the slow cooker insert into the fridge until I'm ready to start it. For the lasagna noodles, just use the normal variety, not the no-boil ones. Christina
