- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup frozen corn kernels
- 1 cup diced tomatoes, drained
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1.5 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it firmly into the edges. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the diced onion and cook for 3–4 minutes, or until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring frequently.
Mix in the black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
Remove the skillet from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Spread 1 cup of the cheddar cheese evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
Pour the beef and vegetable mixture into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Top with the remaining 0.5 cup of cheddar cheese and 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes.
Dollop the sour cream on top of the pie and sprinkle with chopped cilantro and sliced green onions.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Siesta Fiesta Pie!
