Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 oz) corn, drained

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.

- Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.
