Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium, diced yellow onion
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 packet (or 2 tablespoons homemade) taco seasoning
• 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 1 can (15 ounces), drained and rinsed black beans
• 1 cup frozen corn kernels
• 3 pieces large flour tortillas
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 0.25 cup sliced black olives
• 0.25 cup chopped green onions
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the onion softens and becomes translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning, diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, and corn. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish. Place one flour tortilla into the bottom of the dish, pressing it gently to create a base. Tear apart the second tortilla and use the pieces to line the edges of the dish, overlapping slightly to form a complete crust.

Step 6

Spoon half of the meat mixture into the tortilla-lined dish. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the layer.

Step 7

Add the remaining meat mixture on top and then cover with the third tortilla. Press down gently to compact the layers.

Step 8

Spread the sour cream evenly over the top tortilla. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the sour cream.

Step 9

Garnish with sliced black olives and green onions.

Step 10

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

Step 11

Let the pie rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
