Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 medium, diced onion
  • 3 cloves, minced garlic
  • 1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning mix
  • 8 oz tomato sauce
  • 16 oz (1 can) refried beans
  • 15 oz (1 can, drained and rinsed) black beans
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 2 cups, shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup (optional, for serving) sour cream
  • 1 cup (optional, for serving) salsa
  • 0.25 cup, chopped (optional, for garnish) fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is softened.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning mix and tomato sauce. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, mix together the refried beans, black beans, and frozen corn until evenly combined.

Step 6

Lightly grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish. Place one flour tortilla on the bottom of the dish.

Step 7

Spread a layer of the refried bean mixture over the tortilla, followed by a layer of the seasoned ground beef mixture, and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 8

Repeat the layering process with the remaining tortillas, bean mixture, beef mixture, and cheese, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.

Step 9

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

Step 10

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

Step 11

Let the burrito pie cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges or squares.

Step 12

Serve warm, topped with optional sour cream, salsa, and chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.
