This was a delicious recipe, but I found it to be way too heavy on the meat. When I made this a second time, I cut out a full pound of the meat and used an extra zucchini and a couple extra carrots. I also (the second time) used a prepackaged taco seasoning instead of messing with all of those spice. I added a layer of refried beans (about 2/3 can - warm up first so it spread easier onto the tortillas) as well to make up for the meat I omitted. These changes made this recipe MUCH healthier and just as delicious! I served this with sour cream and guacamole, too :) Yum-o, lol.
Excellent!

This recipe really hit the spot and it's easy to make! I added a can of drained diced tomatoes and green chilies to it...topped it with lettuce, tomatoes and some sour cream. Definitely a keeper.
Fantastic!

This was such a great recipe! Another winner, Rachael! I was able to sneak veggies in without them being noticed and the toppings can be changed, or you can put the toppings on after it's served. That way no one has to pick anything off. Great idea!!!
Fantastico!

It's an excellent pot luck dish and so easy to make. It's not the healthiest food but at least has turkey instead of beef. My husband loved it too! It's a keeper for sure. Next time I might add some corn and more veggies and perhaps use less Chili powder. It's a must!!!!!
Great!

I made this tonight and my husband and 13 year old son had 2 and 3 huge helpings...it was completely gone. I made it with ground turkey breast and plain ground turkey...plus I used Chicken stock instead of the Beef and it was really good. My son is already making plans for me to make it again.
Yum

Easy to make and absolutely delicious. Will have to make two batches next time, the kids came back for seconds, then thirds. Great flavor. We liked to garnish with taco sauce, sour cream and/or guacamole.
Yummo!

This recipe is sooo good and it only gets better the next day...carrot and zucchini are a great addition. I tried to cut fat where I could w/o sacrificng flavor: I used lean turkey (93%) and 2% mexican blend cheddar. For a little extra zip, I crumbled a bit of queso fresco with the cheese layers. It turned out so fabulous! I also whipped up a batch of guacamole to top this wonderful creation and put a dollop of light sour cream aside each serving along with the suggested scallions, tomatoes, and lettuce. This recipe was so quick it was ready before I was even ready to serve dinner! I let it rest for about 15 minutes and it was peeerfect!

Pretty Darn Good. Despite its silly name! I did do some substitutions with what I had on hand. Let's see... our local grocery store had no zucchini, and I was about a pound short on the ground turkey- so I added a can of corn and one of black beans. I left out the corriander, since no one in my house likes it, and added some oregano instead. I think I used more tortillas than it called for. It turned out very good. If it was just me, I'd give it 4 stars, but this was the most I've seen my 2 year old eat in months! She even cleaned her plate. Therefore, it earns 5 stars from us. We will be making this again for sure.

I loved this dish! It is a great way to sneak in vegetables. My husband had no idea that there were vegetables in the dish. Great flavor. I did not add the Beef broth and it still turned out great.
Excellent!

Every picky eater in the house left the table very full! I made this once with the flour tortillas but everyone said they tasted "gummy" and "doughy" so the second time I used the corn tortillas...6 overlapping on each layer. Soooo much better with the corn tortillas. Tastes like a big layered tamale!
Even the Baby Liked it!

I have tried similar recipes...mexican lazagna's...and they have all been bad..but Rachel knows her stuff here! We loved it with ground turkey and loved the shredded veggies..who would have thought! Even my small appetite 15 mo old couldn't get enough of it!
Nice & Easy

This was pretty good and everyone loved it. It's a pretty simple meal but it's nice that you can sneak the veggies into it and no one is the wiser. I don't have any picky children to feed, but I do have a semi-picky husband and he had no idea. He also had no idea that I used the ground turkey instead of beef. I was happy with my hoax. =) This is a nice go to meal and I will make it again!
AWESOME!!!

I loved this! I did add some things. I added canned (rinsed and drained) black beans to the meat before making the layers. I also added 1 cup of Pace salsa to the meat and it made it tangy and good. You can substitute reduced fat cheese and it's still good. I, like one of the others, added chopped cilantro to the lettuce mixture.
Awesome!

I made this for my family the very same weekend and we loved it. However, don't make the mistake of using regular ground turkey without draining off the fat because it was a greasy mess the next day. Loved it!
No tacozagna yet, but the dessert was great.

I haven't yet made the Tacozagna, but it looks great. I did, however, make the banana cheesecake. It was easy, and is really tasty. I was just wondering if anyone has been able to find individual graham cracker crusts. I've never seen them, so I just made it in one 9" crust. (If you know where they're available, please email me: strange_litl_grl@yahoo.com)
Yummo

I saw Rachel fix this and I cannot wait to try it out for my 8 year old son, he can help with the preparation and will enjoy it so much better because he helped.
Nutritious with great flavor!

I watched the show on this with my 9 year old son. We both wanted to try it as soon as possible. I made it the next night and was very impressed with how easy and versatile this is. I used the same veggies that Rachael used and it was a great way to "sneak" in that extra nutrition! The flavor was great and it baked up in a flash. We will definitely have this one again!
Very Good!

Easy to Scale Down

I saw this on Tuesday night and decided to make it on Wednesday. Because I was preparing for just myself I decided to cut the recipie in half. It turned out perfectly and the taste was wonderful. I invited a friend over on their way home to join and they thought it was great too. I personally think presentation wise it looks better in a circular dish (hence tortiallas being circular) but I believe that is easier when you scale down the recipie in size. It actually produces a lot of liquid so I would take note of that when adding the stock to the meat. I also created more layers to have more tortilla in the dish and it worked well. Great dish...All should try!
Finally tried....

This was an awesome recipe! My very picky husband and four year old loved it. I did, however, modify it. I first sauted chopped onions and garlic, then added ground turkey breast, grated yellow squash (for some reason there was no zucchini at my local store that day), grated carrots, and cilantro. Instead of using all the seasonings I also added a packet of taco seasoning mix. The cilantro gave it great flavor! I will definitely make this again.

I made the Tacozagna in less than half an hour, while its not gourmet food it is good, fast, healthy, and everyone liked it. This would make a GREAT pot luck dish, just bring salad veggies and apply before serving.
Awsome and easy dinner and desert for a busy family.
