Steps

1Preheat the oven to 350F and prepare a 9x13 casserole dish.
2Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add in olive oil. Once hot, add in the ground beef and break it apart. Then, add in chopped onion and stir it well. Cook for around 5 minutes.
3Now add chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin. Stir well to cover the beef with the seasonings and cook for another 5 minutes.
4While cooking the beef, cover the casserole dish with crushed tortilla chips.
5Once you've cooked the beef, remove excess liquids from the skillet and add in black beans, corn, salsa, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. Give it a stir and warm up until the cheese starts melting.
6Cover the tortilla chips with the beef mixture from the skillet. Top up with the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese evenly.
7Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese has nicely melted and bubbles on the sides.
8Cover the casserole with tomatoes, scallions, avocado, olives, lettuce, cilantro and sour cream before serving. Enjoy!
