Good Ol' American Cookin'

On today's menu, I made "TACOSAGNA". I found this recipe on Mennonite Girls Can Cook . It was yummy! I made some adaptations to the recipe as we are still trying to watch our carb intake a bit but didn't want to ruin the "ambiance" of the dish. My recipe is as follows: 2 lbs of ground cooked, 1 packet of taco seasoning added to meat, 2 cans of corn added to meat, 1-12oz jar of salsa added to meat and cooked for about 10-15 mins.
