A delicious and hearty layered pie featuring seasoned beef, corn, and cheese, perfect for a family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the perfect texture for your dish.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened.
Stir occasionally to prevent the onions from burning.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned. Drain any excess fat.
Breaking up the beef as it cooks ensures even browning.
Stir in the taco seasoning and a splash of water. Let it simmer for a few minutes.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste preference.
Mix in the crushed tomatoes, corn kernels, and cornmeal. Cook until the mixture thickens slightly.
Stir continuously to prevent the cornmeal from clumping.
Layer 4 tortillas in the bottom of a greased baking dish. Spread half of the beef mixture over the tortillas, then sprinkle with half of the cheese.
Ensure the tortillas cover the bottom evenly for a sturdy base.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining tortillas, beef mixture, and cheese.
Press down gently to compact the layers for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 25 minutes.
Check halfway through to ensure the cheese doesn't over-brown.
Let the pie cool slightly before slicing into portions. Serve warm and enjoy!
Cooling helps the layers set, making it easier to slice.
