Quick, easy and it comes together in one dish, your skillet!
1 pound lean ground beef
1/3 cup each chopped green and sweet red bell peppers
2 cups salsa
3/4 cup frozen corn
2 tbsp water
6 corn tortillas, halved and cut into 1/2 inch strips
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
5 tbsp sour cream, optional topping
Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; cook beef and peppers over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in salsa, corn and water; bring to a boil.
Stir in tortilla strips. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until tortillas are softened. Sprinkle with cheese and cook 2-3 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
