Mexican Lasagna

Prep Time: 20 min.
Bake Time: 15 min.

2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes with basil, oregano, and farlic, undrained
1 can (4 oz.) chopped green chilies
3 green onions, sliced
2 tsp. dried oregano
2 tsp. ground cumin
6 corn torillas
2 c. shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 lb. ground beef, cooked and drained*
Sour Cream*

In a bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Place two tortillas in a 13x9 in. baking dish, coated with cooking spray. Spread with 1/3 of the corn mixture; sprinkle with 1/3 of the cheese; sprinkle with 1/3 of the meat; add a few dollops of sour cream. Repeat layers. Bake, uncovered, at 400* for 15-20 minutes or until heated through. Let stand for 5 minutes.

*The beef and sour cream are optional. I added them when I made this, but the original recipe does not call for either
