Banana peppers offer a milder flavor.

Heat a large skillet and add ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks.

Cook until no pink remains and drain any excess grease.

Return skillet to heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Add 1 chopped onion and 2 chopped cloves of garlic; mix well.

Add 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, 1 teaspoon of taco seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste; mix until incorporated.

Add 1/2 cup of water and mix everything together; let it cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the meat is browned.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange tortilla chips in a single layer.

Spread the taco mixture on top of the tortilla chips.

Drizzle with natural cheese (warmed) over the mixture.

Spread rinsed and drained black beans on top.

Top with sweet corn and taco style shredded cheese.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

Remove from the oven and garnish with diced tomatoes, green onion, chopped cilantro, pickled or fresh jalapeños, and dollops of sour cream.
