As with most Monday through Fridays the afternoons are spent on the neighbor’s front porch. One topic we hit on about the time the husbands are due home is “What’s for dinner?” One neighbor said its either Mexican Lasagna or something thing else. So inspired by her and the fact I needed to cook my ground beef asap I cooked this up.

Hubby- He had a dinner meeting so he only had a spoonful but it said to be good.
Me- Maybe a little cheese mixed into the meat. And more cheese. I like cheese.
