Description

A hearty and indulgent dish featuring flavorful ground beef, cheese, and spicy queso baked to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
  • 1 cup queso dip
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart until cooked through. Drain excess fat.
  3. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until tender and aromatic.
  4. Toss in black beans, diced tomatoes, corn, cumin, and chili powder. Season with salt and pepper, cooking for 5-7 minutes until heated through.
  5. Spread a small amount of the beef mixture on the bottom of a baking dish.
  6. Fill each corn tortilla with the beef mixture, rolling them up tightly and placing seam-side down in the dish.
  7. Pour queso dip over the enchiladas and top with the remaining shredded cheese.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  9. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.

Notes

Make ahead by preparing the beef mixture a day in advance. For crispy edges, consider using an air fryer.
