• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup canned corn kernels, drained
• 1 can canned diced tomatoes with green chilies

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5–7 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning, canned diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, and corn. Simmer the mixture for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Place half of the crushed tortilla chips in the bottom of the prepared baking dish, spreading them out evenly.

Step 6

Layer half of the beef mixture over the chips, followed by half of the sour cream and 1 cup of shredded cheese.

Step 7

Repeat the layers with the remaining chips, beef mixture, sour cream, and 1 cup of shredded cheese.

Step 8

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

Step 9

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

Step 10

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

Step 11

Garnish with jalapeño slices, cilantro, and green onions before serving.

Step 12

Serve hot and enjoy!
