  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned; drain excess fat, then stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent.
  3. Add the diced tomatoes, kidney beans, corn, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to the skillet; simmer for 5 minutes to combine flavors.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the cooked rice, sour cream, and milk until well combined. Then, fold in the beef mixture from the skillet.
  5. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and crushed tortilla chips.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving to allow the casserole to set.
