Make You Weep Mexican Lasagna

One of my best ghi friends, Laura Merrill, knocked my socks off when she introduced me to a fantastic recipe, And Then He Wept (Mexican Lasagna).  Mexican and Italian...what could be better?  And the kicker is, it's super easy and she made it healthy!  Go ghi.  I made this delish dish last week and haven't been able to get it off my mind.  I didn't photograph my lasagna so here is a pic of Laura Merrill's and the simple directions.  

Mexican Lasagna

1 lb lean ground turkey 
1 onion, chopped
1 can Rotel, drained
1 can diced tomatoes, drained
1 small can of tomato sauce
2 packages taco seasoning
6 whole wheat tortillas
2 cups weight watchers Mexican cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown mean and onion. Add Rotel, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and taco seasoning - combine well. 

Spray a 9x13 inch dish with cooking spray. Place two tortillas in the bottom of the dish, top with some of the turkey mixture, follow with cheese. Repeat two more times. 

Cover with foil, bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil, bake for 10 more minutes. 

Serving size 1/8 of recipe

This recipe was lightened up from the original version. If you are interested in making the husky version replace the turkey with ground beef, the wheat tortillas with jumbo flour ones, and the two cups of cheese with five cups.

Thanks for the introduction ghi!

Love for Eva...

It's been a while since my last blog.  I'm sure all 4 of you are missing me so.  While I should be studying for a test, I can't help but find better things to do such as peruse the ol' net.  These days I'm a little short on inspiration.  If it doesn't have to do with crafting creatures of the ocean, I'm pretty much not interested.  However, while procrastinating, I came across InStyle's look of the day--Eva Mendes.  Have I ever mentioned my love for her?  I think she is gorgeous and has exceptional taste.  She has major white moments.  

HAPPY WEEKEND!!!!

I am so looking forward to this long holiday weekend!!  My plans are to wine and dine this evening with some lovely ladies, maybe watch a little football, and enjoy this awesome Fall weather!  Hope everyone has a fabulous Labor Day!  And happy early birthday to my ghi, Lindsey!!!

Happy Happy Rhoda!!!  One more year until your 30s!!!!!!!!  

I want to hang out with...

Kate Hudson.  Maybe some of her boho chicness would rub off on me.  Plus I think we'd be great friends.  She could sing Silver Springs and I could back her up.  And who doesn't want a glass of wine while playing badmitton?  I sure do.

This white moment is major.  I die.  

Wishful Wednesday

Today while I'm wishing for the air conditioner in our room to be fixed, I'm also craving these things...

This fun, embellished dress for Martha's wedding in 10 days (WOO HOO!!!!)

(A bigger paycheck to afford something like this would be nice too)

I'm in dire need of a pedi.  

Citizen's Avedons in every color.  I love a skinny jean and I can totally get away with wearing these even when it's not a cas day...

A mini fridge full of diet cokes.  I try to stay away from the stuff, but sometimes I just need a fix. 

Happy Hump Day!!!
