Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup corn kernels
• 1 10-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies (e.g., Rotel)
• 1.5 cups enchilada sauce
• 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
• 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease, if necessary.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning, black beans, corn kernels, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and enchilada sauce. Mix well to combine and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir until everything is evenly combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded Mexican blend cheese evenly over the top.

Step 8

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with sour cream on the side, if desired.
