    • cooking spray

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🥩 1 pound ground beef
    • 🌽 1 (16 ounce) bag frozen whole-kernel corn with red and green bell peppers
    • 1 (12 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
    • 🧅 1 small onion, diced
    • 🧄 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix
    • 🧀 1 (12 ounce) bag shredded Mexican cheese blend
    • 🥔 1 (16 ounce) package frozen bite-sized potato nuggets (such as Tater Tots)
    • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can enchilada sauce

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

2

Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add in frozen corn, black beans, onion, garlic, and taco seasoning mix to ground beef; cook and stir another 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

3

Combine ground beef mixture in a large bowl with about 3/4 of the Mexican cheese blend and the potato nuggets; stir to combine.

4

Pour about 1/3 of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Add the tater tot mixture to the baking dish; lightly pat the mixture down into a solid, even layer. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the potatoes.

5

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Sprinkle remaining cheese over the casserole and return to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5 minutes more.
