South of the border night....

Once upon a time my husband was a meat and potatoes kinda guy and getting him to eat anything else was hard! He was really an easy going guy but man don't mess with his dinner! He would eat anything twice.....and if it was something he really didn't care for he would just say "you don't have to make that again".
I love trying new recipes and experimenting with old ones to make them better! The girls don't really care, unless I talk about 2 things.....Lasagna and Cinnamon Rolls, those are sacred and I don't mess with them!
Tonight's recipe is a family favorite.....fiddled with for years before settling on this "perfect" version!
It's pretty yummy...mildly spicy so little kids won't have too much to complain about ;)

Mexican Lasagna
1 bag of ground beef, thawed
1 tsp garlic
1/2 tsp each, oregano, basil and cumin
2 small cans tomato sauce
1 small can sliced olives, drained
1 can sweet corn, drained
salt and pepper
Combine in a large skillet and cover. Simmer over low heat while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
Spray a baking dish with non stick spray.
Combine in a large bowl:
1 cup sour cream

Crush a large bag of plain corn chips and layer in your baking dish as follows
