I made this divine lasagna last night for supper. My hunger level was peaking at high and I forgot to take a photo of the end result. (I'll provide one compliments of Taste of Home) This was a delicious recipe. As the directions say, definitely let it rest 15 minutes before slicing, giving it a chance to thicken-up. Enjoy.

Ingredients
- 1-1/2 pounds ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) stewed tomatoes, undrained
- 1 can (10 ounces) enchilada sauce
- 1 to 2 teaspoons ground cumin
