This Crock Pot Taco Lasagna is adapted from Gooseberry Patch’s 101 Cozy Casseroles. It is so delicious that everyone was asking for seconds, even my mother-in-law!

One of the great things about this awesome Crock Pot Taco Lasagna is that it can be easily altered to fit your family’s preferences! I am the Queen of Picky-Eating. So this bare-bones version is perfect for me. Michael, the I-Like-A-Million-Flavors-In-One-Dish King, even loved this because it is so flavorful! He added a dollop of sour cream and was one happy man! Now, I know big sis would be adding mushrooms to the layers faster than I can blink! I’m sure they would work great in this recipe…ya know, if you actually like mushrooms! 😉

Crock Pot Taco Lasagna Recipe

Note: Scroll to the bottom of this post for a printable version.

This recipe is pretty easy to put together. As you know, I am a momma of little ones. Well, I threw it on when it was getting close to dear youngest’s nap time. Actually, if you would have asked her, she would have told you nap time needed to come early that day! I put this together with a 15-month-old hanging on me, winding through my legs and getting into everything…and it still turned out pretty…and yummy!

Ingredients for Crock Pot Taco Lasagna

1 lb ground beef
1 oz pkg taco seasoning
8 burrito size flour tortillas
8 oz pkg cream cheese softened and divided
2-3 c shredded Cheddar cheese divided
15 oz can tomato sauce divided
Optional: favorite taco toppings grated or shredded cheddar cheese

How to Make Taco Lasagna in a Slow Cooker

  1. Put your ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat
  2. Brown, drain, add your taco seasoning packet and cook according to instructions on packet
  3. Lightly spray your crock pot with cooking spray
  4. Place two tortilla shells in your crock pot so that they cover the bottom of the insert and come up the sides some
  5. Spread 1/4 of your cream cheese over your tortillas
  6. Top with 1/4 of your taco meat, 1/4 of your cheese and 1/4 of your tomato sauce
  7. Repeat your layers three more times
  8. Cover and cook on low for 3-5 hours
  9. Serve with your favorite taco toppings and cheese

Crock Pot Taco Lasagna Notes

  • Make sure your cream cheese is softened. If not, it is a little awkward spreading the cream cheese on your tortillas…not that I would know that from experience or anything! By the last layer, my cream cheese was nice and soft, and it was easy peasy to spread out!
  • This recipe is adapted from Gooseberry Patch’s 101 Cozy Casseroles.
  • This Crock Pot Taco Lasagna is one of those recipes that seems like it was just made for my 9 x13 casserole slow cooker made by Crock Pot. If you don’t have one yet, you can use a 5-6 quart crock pot.
  • As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

    I’ve made this a couple of times now for my household. The only thing that I do differently is that I add a little bit hot sauce with the tomato sauce layers. My family loves it! It’s in the regular rotation now. Thank you!

      Hi Karen!

      I haven’t tried this recipe with noodles before, but Cris has a Mexican Lasagna (link below) that uses noodles that you might like! Enjoy!

      Hi Helen!

      I have not made it in the oven, but you might try it on 350 for around 25 minutes. Just make sure it is heated through and your cheese is melted. Enjoy!

    Hi,
    I’m wondering if I could use a jar of salsa (not fresh) instead of the tomato sauce? Looking forward to hearing from you.

      Hello!

      I’m not sure. I would be concerned about it being too liquidy. Let me know how it is if you try it! Enjoy!

      I have never used corn tortillas, but you could give it a try. Let me know how it turns out! Enjoy!

      Using corn tortillas might be good for those on a glutin or wheat-free diet!

      I used corn tortillas because of a gluten allergy and it was delicious! Because of the dryness of corn tortillas, I added a little extra tomato sauce with my layers (like an extra half can). Whipped cream cheese makes for easy spreading on the tortillas! I also added a can of black beans and a can of corn (without the juices) to the meat mixture for a more complete meal. And I substituted the beef for shredded chicken. Of course, using chicken increased the prep time a little, but it was well worth it. Super yummy recipe!!
