  • Green Tomato Salsa / Sauce 
  • Optional if available: Fresh roasted, peeled and diced green chile
  • 1 Diced Onion (purple, white or green onions or all three!)

  • Black Olives, sliced
  • Filling: Choose from any of the following: black beans, pinto beans,  diced zucchini, squash, potatoes, mushrooms, or ground beef
  • Optional: Add hot peppers of your choice if you like it spicy! Think Jalapenos, or other hot peppers. Even super hot peppers if you like it XXX hot!

Directions:

It's simple: layer corn tortillas in a glass lasagna dish with the other ingredients to create this dish. First spread green chile sauce or Green Tomato Sauce, then add a layer of corn tortillas, then layer with cheese, onions, and filling of your choice, green chile or hot peppers, with more sauce/stew, another layer of tortillas, repeat.
