Ingredients

• 20 ounces frozen cheese ravioli
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
• 14 ounces diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 8 ounces tomato sauce
• 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup frozen corn kernels
• 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
• 0.5 cup sour cream (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons sliced green onions (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.

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, diced tomatoes with green chilies, tomato sauce, black beans, and frozen corn. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to meld flavors.

Step 5

Spread a thin layer of the beef mixture on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

Place half of the frozen cheese ravioli in a single layer over the beef mixture.

Step 7

Spoon half of the remaining beef mixture over the ravioli, then sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded Mexican blend cheese on top.

Step 8

Repeat the layers with the remaining ravioli, beef mixture, and 1 cup of cheese.

Step 9

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the casserole is hot and bubbly, and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

Step 11

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

Step 12

Optionally, top with sour cream, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro for garnish.
