I made Rachel Ray's Tacozangna for my Brother and
my nephew and they loved it. I couldn't find the
Coriander, chili powder ,and cummin. So I used Taco
Bell's Taco Seasoning and Beef Broth. It came out
awesome. my brother and my oldest son were the
first ones done eating before anyone else was done. LOL
:) my Brother was the first to go back for seconds.
made me feel really good. This is the second Rachel Ray
recipe I have made that was a major hit. Take Care and
God Bless. <><

I have made that one twice now and both times it has been a huge hit. Did you make the banana cheesecakes with it? My family loved them too. D.
Tacozagna and Banana Cheesecakes
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 2 1/2 pounds ground turkey or ground sirloin
- 1 zucchini
- 2 carrots, peeled
- 1 onion, peeled
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled
- 3 tablespoons chili powder, 3 palm fulls
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin, 2/3 palm full
- 1 tablespoon coriander, a palm full
- Salt
and freshly ground black pepper - 1 cup beef
stock - 6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
- 3 cups shredded Chihuahua cheese
or Monterey Jack - 4 scallions, chopped
- 2 hearts romaine lettuce, chopped
- 3 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 3 cups prepared cheesecake filling (recommended: Philly brand)
- 2 very ripe bananas with spotty skins
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 6 individual graham cracker crusts
- Whipped cream
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat a large high sided skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the meat and brown, 5 minutes. While meat browns, grate the zucchini and carrots with a box grater. Add the vegetables to the meat and grate in the onion and garlic. Season the meat with chili, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper and cook 7 to 8 minutes more to soften vegetables. Stir in beef stock. Grease a 8 by 13-inch baking pan with vegetable oil. Layer in 3 overlapping flour tortillas and top with 1/3 meat, 1/3 cheese. Repeat the layers twice and bake 10 to 12 minutes to brown cheese. Top with scallions, lettuce and tomatoes, cut into squares and serve.
While Tacosagna cooks, make dessert. Place cheesecake filling in bowl and mash in 2 really ripe bananas, season with cinnamon and stir in honey. Fill the crust tins and when you are ready to serve top with a swirl of whipped cream.
It was on 30 minute meals. She had a kid named Ty on there helping her make it. That was one of my favorite shows. Got me wanting to take my girls in the kitchen more.
