Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
Stir in the taco seasoning, diced tomatoes with green chilies (including their liquid), black beans, and frozen corn. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
Spray a 9-inch pie dish or cake pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Place one flour tortilla at the bottom of the dish. Spread a thin layer of the meat mixture over the tortilla, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
Repeat the layers with the remaining tortillas, meat mixture, and cheese, ending with a layer of cheese on top.
Cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the tortilla pie cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of black olives, and chopped cilantro. Serve warm and enjoy!
