Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 onion chopped
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 envelope taco seasoning
- ¼ cup water
- 1 12 ounce can corn, drained
- 5 8 inch flour tortillas
- 1 ½ cups salsa
- 2 cups mexican or tex mex cheese shredded (pre-shredded is fine)
- Garnish with sliced green onions chopped tomatoes, cilantro, shredded lettuce, sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 8-inch springform pan by spraying it with nonstick spray.
- Scramble fry the ground beef with onion in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Cook until there is no pink left in the meat then drain the excess fat. Add the garlic, taco seasoning, water, corn, and salsa. Cook for another 5 minutes.
- Place one tortilla in the springform pan.
- Layer on about 1 cup of meat mixture. Sprinkle on ½ cup of cheese. Create layers of tortilla, meat mixture, and cheese until you’ve done 4 full layers. Finish with the 5th tortilla and top off your pie with the remaining cheese.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- Allow the pie to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the springform pan and cutting. Or you may serve it directly from the pan.
Notes
- I liked the springform pan for this recipe because it came out beautifully and made it easy to assemble but you could do the same in a 9X9 casserole dish. Also, You can easily use 2 packets of taco seasoning in this if you really like flavor!
