Weeknights are tough, and they only seem to get more difficult as we get in closer to the holidays. That’s why I like to stick with quick and easy weeknight dinners. These Tex-Mex Lasagna Roll-Ups are a fun twist on a modern Italian classic; lasagna roll-ups!

I’ve taken lasagna roll-ups and given them a Tex-Mex kick. I guess you could call it Tex-Italia! I loosely got the idea for this fun dish off of one that my mom makes which is called ‘Cowboy Spaghetti’. I took this dish a little more Tex-Mex though with the addition of beans and taco meat to all be rolled up in lasagna noodles. They’re basically a Tex-Mex taco in lasagna form.

Not just any lasagna noodles though, Skinner Lasagna noodles! Skinner is “tried and true, so you can do you”, which means I was confident in adding my own Texas-inspired flavors to this pasta dish. I knew that it would turn out delicious!

Not only is Skinner pasta perfect for weeknight meals, it’s also great for elevated special occasion dishes too. But for today, I’m sticking with easy-peasy.

I kept these Tex-Mex Lasagna Roll-Ups lightened up and a bit better-for-you by using refried black beans, extra lean ground beef, and my own homemade taco seasoning.
