Method

Prepare the Filling

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat.
Add the taco seasoning, black beans, corn, and salsa to the skillet. Stir to combine and heat through.

In a baking dish, layer half of the tortillas on the bottom.
Spread half of the beef mixture over the tortillas, then sprinkle with half of the cheese.
Repeat the layers with the remaining tortillas, beef mixture, and cheese.

Bake

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
