Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large pan or oven-safe skillet heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once warm, add in diced onion and bell pepper, sauté for 3-4 minutes until onions begin to soften.

Add in the ground turkey and brown until cooked through, mix in seasonings.
Remove from heat and mix in the beans, 1/2 of the enchilada sauce, sweet corn, and green chiles.

Top the casserole evenly with a layer of the sliced tortillas, pour over the remaining enchilada sauce, and finish off with the shredded cheese.
12 oz. Green enchilada sauce, 10 White corn tortillas , 10 oz. Pepper jack cheese
Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly. If desired, broil on high for 2-3 minutes to get the cheese and tortillas golden brown.
Top casserole with desired toppings and enjoy immediately!

Notes
Don’t skip the fresh corn, if it’s in season. It adds such a nice sweetness and crunch. Frozen sweet corn will also work.
Make it ahead: Assemble the whole skillet, cover, and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking. Add 5–10 minutes to the bake time if starting cold.
Spice level: This recipe is mild as written. Add jalapeños or hot sauce if you want more heat or adjust seasonings.
Cheese tip: Shred your own cheese for the best melt. Pre-shredded works, but won’t be quite as creamy as they contain anti-caking agents when pre-shredded.
Freezer-friendly: Let it cool completely, then portion into airtight containers. Reheat in the oven or microwave for an easy meal later!
