Ingredients

• 2 cups Black beans (cooked or canned, drained and rinsed)
• 2 cups Corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
• 1 medium Red bell pepper (diced)
• 4 stalks Green onion (sliced)
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 can Rotel tomatoes with green chilies (canned, drained)
• 1 packet Taco seasoning
• 2 cups Tortilla chips (crushed)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or olive oil.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed red bell pepper, black beans, corn, Rotel tomatoes, green onion, sour cream, taco seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well distributed.

Step 4

Spread half of the bean and corn mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture, followed by 1 cup of crushed tortilla chips.

Step 6

Layer the remaining bean and corn mixture on top, then evenly sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and crushed tortilla chips over the top.

Step 7

Cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is fully melted.

Step 9

Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional green onion or a dollop of sour cream if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
