Ingredients
Check ingredients as you go.
Let’s make it
Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a 9-inch pie dish lightly with olive oil.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until completely browned and no pink remains, about 7 minutes.
Stir in taco seasoning, diced tomatoes, black beans, and corn. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for 5 minutes until mixture thickens slightly.
In the prepared pie dish, layer half of the crushed tortilla chips to cover the bottom evenly.
Spread half of the beef mixture evenly over the chips.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef layer.
Repeat layering with the remaining crushed tortilla chips, beef mixture, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven uncovered for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
Tips & notes
Use a good quality shredded cheddar cheese for best melting and flavor. If you prefer a spicier pie, add chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the beef mixture.
Saving it for later
Store leftover pie covered in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheating
Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 1-2 minutes until heated through, or warm in a preheated oven at 175°C (350°F) for 10-15 minutes.
