Steps:
- Heat your oven to 350 degrees. Before we get to the recipe, you can layer your ingredients in any order you like. You can change ingredients and add extra ingredients. Make it your own. Start by combining the chicken, cream cheese, and about 1.5-2 cups of poblano cream sauce. Stir until well mixed. You want the chicken to be well coated without it being too saucy. To start assembling the Mexican Lasagna, you want to place a single layer of tortillas in the bottom of a casserole dish. I used a ceramic dish and did not need to grease it. You want to create the best layer of tortillas that you can and you will likely need to slice tortillas in half or cut the edges off. Next, spread all of the refried beans on top of the tortillas in an even layer. Sprinkle with about 1/2 cup cheese. Then add another layer of tortillas. Pour the salsa over the tortillas and sprinkle half of the raw corn over. Top with another layer of tortillas. Spread half of the chicken mixture over the tortillas to make the next layer. Drizzle some extra poblano cream sauce over the top. Add another layer of tortillas. Drain and rinse the black beans and spread half of them over the tortillas. Sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of cheese and drizzle about 1/2 cup of poblano cream sauce over the top. Add another layer of tortillas. Add the remaining chicken mixture and top with a last layer of tortillas. For the last layer, spread about 1/2 cup of the poblano cream sauce over the top of the tortillas, then sprinkle the remaining corn, black beans, and cheese over the top. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until hot and the cheese has browned. If you are assembling in advance and refrigerating you may need to increase the bake time. If you like, you can garnish with sliced grape tomatoes and green onion.
MEXICAN PUMPKIN SMOKED CHICKEN LASAGNA
The seasonings are Mexican, not the pumpkin! I attended a cooking class about 15 years ago that had a 'Rick Bayless' pumpkin lasagna. It was good and this is my interpretation. I noted most pumpkin lasagna feature sage and are meatless, which is fine, but doesn't thrill my palate.

Steps:
- Saute onion, garlic and peppers in olive oil until browned.
- Add in herbs, vegetable cube, pumpkin and a cup or two of water. You want to dissolve the vegetable cube and thin the sauce so that is like the tomato sauce you'd normally use to make lasagna. The water in this will also hydrate the pasta, so don't skimp! Adjust heat so that sauce simmers and flavor develops. Taste and adjust for salt.
- Grate Jack cheese. You can also use pepper Jack or mozarella or cheddar, even.
- Chop chicken. You can also used a nice quality smoked chicken deli meat, too.
- In a large bowl, mix ricotta with herbs and eggs. Thin with milk if necessary to make it spreadable.
- Assembly: Pour a small amount of sauce to cover the bottom of a 9X13 pan. Lay the dry pasta sheets on top (I find that I never have to cook or soak my noodles, whatever the brand--just make sure you have sufficient liquid in the dish). Smear the ricotta mixture on top of the dry pasta sheets, sprinkle chicken on top of that, the grated cheese on top of that and then spoon half your jar of salsa over that. Then add another, more generous layer of the pumpkin sauce. Then pasta, ricotta, chicken, jack, salsa and/or pumpkin. The last layer should be pumpkin sauce sprinkled with the grated cheese.
- I find that lasagna can be a little tricky with regard to the quantity of ingredients you have. Coming up short or with too much this or that has to do with how thickly you layer things and the depth of your pan. I do know that you don't really want to end with a layer of pasta noodles because they'll just stay hard and that if you only give yourself a centimeter clearance from the top you should probably place the pan on a cookie sheet before it goes into the over because it will likely boil over! I often keep a small pan off to the side so I can improvise with any leftovers.
- Cover and bake in a 350 (180) degree oven until bubbly and cheese is melted--around 45 minutes. Uncover to brown the top or, if at the start it seems too watery to you, go ahead and bake it uncovered the whole time.
- Serve with sour cream and pickled jalapenos if you like.

A fabulously easy and delicious take on a favorite - this lasagna is full of Mexican flavors and uses layers of corn tortillas in place of noodles. Easy to adapt and personalize - try adding sauteed veggies, Spanish rice, diced jalapeno, or even switching out the red salsa for green!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cook lasagna noodles in boiling salted water until just al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain well and transfer noodles to a baking pan. Toss the noodles with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to prevent them from sticking together.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add sausage; cook about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Add onion, reduce heat to medium, and cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add collard greens and cook about 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until wilted and liquid has evaporated. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, stir together 1 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper, pumpkin puree, heavy cream, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, stir together remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, ricotta, eggs, 1 1/2 cups Parmesan, and 1 cup fontina.
- Coat a 9x13-inch (3-quart) broiler-proof baking dish with cooking spray. Spoon 1/2 cup of the pumpkin mixture into the dish; spread in an even layer. Arrange 3 or 4 lasagna noodles over pumpkin mixture, overlapping slightly. Spread 1/2 of the remaining pumpkin mixture over the noodles in an even layer. Top with 1/2 of the sausage mixture and another layer of 3 to 4 noodles. Spread 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over noodles. Repeat layering with noodles, remaining pumpkin mixture, remaining sausage mixture, another layer of noodles, and remaining ricotta mixture.
- Cover lasagna with foil and bake until bubbly around the edges and thoroughly heated in the center, about 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and uncover. Preheat broiler. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan and remaining 1 cup fontina on top of the lasagna and broil about 4 inches from heat source until browned, about 4 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.
