# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a large rimmed sheet pan (approximately 17x12 inch) with nonstick spray or oil.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground meat and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned and nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes.
03 - Stir in diced onion, bell pepper, corn, and jalapeño. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until vegetables soften.
04 - Add minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 more minute, then remove from heat. If using beans, add now and heat through.
05 - Place 6 tortillas overlapping around the edges of the sheet pan, allowing half of each to hang over the sides, then cover the center with 1 tortilla.
06 - Evenly spread the meat and vegetable mixture over the tortillas. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the filling.
07 - Place 1 additional tortilla in the center, then fold the overhanging tortillas over the filling to completely enclose it.
08 - Brush the top layer of tortillas with melted butter or neutral oil.
09 - Place another sheet pan on top and press gently. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the top pan and bake for an additional 5 minutes until golden and crisp.
10 - Allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve with optional toppings as desired.
