👩🍳 How to Make Mexican Tortilla Casserole
1. Cook the Filling
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat, then stir in taco seasoning, black beans, corn, tomatoes, and half of the enchilada sauce. Let simmer for 5 minutes to blend flavors.
2. Layer the Casserole
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the remaining enchilada sauce. Place a layer of tortillas (cut if needed to fit), then add a layer of the meat mixture and sprinkle with cheese. Repeat the layers, ending with cheese on top.
