Servings 8
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning 1 packet
- 2/3 cup water to make the taco meat
- 15 ounces corn 1 can, drained
- 15.25 ounces black beans 1 can, drained and rinsed
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 8 ounces shredded Colby Jack cheese
- 4 extra-large flour tortillas
Instructions
- First, in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, brown your ground beef until no longer pink and drain off the grease. Then mix in your water and taco seasoning and simmer for a minute. Add in the drained corn and rinsed black beans.
- Next, begin layering the taco pie. In a 9-inch pie pan, take one flour tortilla and form the bottom crust leaving any excess tortilla shell to climb up the sides. *Note* If you are using a regular 9-inch glass pie pan you will be doing two layers and using a total of three tortillas. You will need to use 1/2 of the meat mixture and cheese for each layer. If you are using a deep-dish 9-inch pie pan(like mine pictured), you will need four tortillas and split your meat and cheese into thirds.
- Then add a layer of meat mixture with the corn and black beans, followed by an ounce or two of sour cream, and then a layer of the Colby Jack cheese. Repeat 1-2 more times.
- Top the pie with a flour tortilla and cut off the excess with a knife or pizza cutter.
- Bake uncovered at 350°F for 15-20 minutes until bubbling. Let it cool for 5 minutes and serve warm. Garnish with any taco toppings such as shredded lettuce, fresh salsa, and hot sauce.
