Santa Fe Tortilla Stack Black Beans, Corn & Caramelized onion

santa fe tortilla stack bean cheese

The “stack” was a forever popular dish on the TaylorMade Menu..  It’s kind of like a quesadilla,  except a lot less work and far less fat since it’s baked, not fried..  We made a pulled pork & cheddar cheese stack with caramelized onion and bbq sauce, a mushroom & goat cheese stack with roasted veggies and sundried tomato, a philly cheesesteak stack and of course this one, the Santa Fe Tortilla Stack.. A hearty & flavorful vegetarian main dish with Black Beans, roasted garlic, caramelized onion & Sweet Corn layered between flour tortillas & cheddar cheese stacked and topped with a lime sour cream, avocado, tomato, scallions and cilantro (or parsley if you’re a hater).   FYI: Kids absolutely love the stack..

I usually have 2 or 3 tortillas leftover that won’t fit into the stack.  Instead of throwing them back into the fridge I stack them, cut them in half, in half again, place on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.  Bake at 350 for 5-7 min or until brown.  You can also use a cinnamon sugar mixture for a sweet treat to go along with the meal.
