For a spicier lasagna, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce to the chili mixture. Feel free to customize the filling with other vegetables, such as diced bell peppers, corn, or zucchini. If you prefer a milder flavor, use a mild Cheddar cheese instead of sharp. Store leftover lasagna in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
In a medium bowl, combine the chili, drained black beans, and chopped onion. Mix well to ensure even distribution. (5 minutes)
03
Step
15 mins
Arrange 4 corn tortillas in a single layer at the bottom of the prepared baking dish, slightly overlapping if necessary to cover the surface. Sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded Cheddar cheese evenly over the tortillas. Spoon half of the chili mixture over the cheese layer, spreading it out to cover. Repeat this layering process two more times, using 4 tortillas, 1 cup of cheese, and the remaining chili mixture for each layer. Finish with a final layer of 1 cup of Cheddar cheese on top. (15 minutes)
04
Step
35 mins
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent the cheese from browning too quickly and to help the lasagna heat evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes, or until the lasagna is bubbling hot and the cheese is melted and lightly golden brown. (35 minutes)
05
Step
0 mins
Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the layers to set slightly, making it easier to cut and serve.
