Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (or turkey)
• 1 medium Onion, diced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 packet Taco seasoning
• 1 can (14 oz) Diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained
• 1 can (15 oz) Black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup Frozen corn
• 6 Large flour tortillas
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)
• 0.25 cup Chopped fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning, diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, and frozen corn. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to combine. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Place one tortilla in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread a thin layer of the meat and bean mixture over the tortilla, followed by a layer of cheddar and mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Repeat the layering process (tortilla, meat mixture, cheese) until you’ve used all the tortillas, ending with a final layer of meat mixture and cheese on top.

Step 7

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese on top is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 9

Allow the tortilla lasagna to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Garnish with sour cream and fresh cilantro, if desired. Enjoy!
