For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ground beef mixture or use a hot taco sauce. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef. To prevent the tortillas from becoming soggy, lightly toast them in a dry skillet before assembling the lasagna. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
