Cheesy Taco Casserole

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 green pepper, diced
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15-ounce) can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or more to taste (optional)
2 cups (16 ounces) jarred chunky-style salsa
8 to 9 cups (about 7 ounces) corn tortilla chips
1 1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/4 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
Assorted toppings such as sliced avocado, sliced green onions, sliced jalapenos, diced tomatoes, plain Greek yogurt. Additional salsa, hot sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Lightly mist a 9x13-inch baking dish with a cooking spray or oil mister. Set aside.
To a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. When the olive oil is hot, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the pepper and corn. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add all of the beans, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, cayenne (if using) and salsa. Stir to combine and cook until warmed through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
Spread half of the tortilla chips evenly in the prepared baking dish. Drop half of the bean mixture in dollops over the chips. Sprinkle evenly with half of the cheddar cheese and half of the pepper jack cheese. Top with the remaining chips, then spoon on the rest of the bean mixture, and finally sprinkle on the remaining cheddar and pepper jack cheeses.
Bake until the cheese is melted and the casserole is hot throughout, about 20 minutes.
Serve with desired toppings.
