Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
  • 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

  • Sour cream, salsa, and guacamole for serving (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
  • Stir in taco seasoning, black beans, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and tomato sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • In a 9x13-inch baking dish, layer the tortillas, meat mixture, corn, and shredded cheese, repeating the layers until all ingredients are used, ending with cheese on top.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  • Use whole wheat tortillas for added fiber.
  • Customize with your favorite toppings like jalapeños, cilantro, or avocado slices.
