    Spray 5-quart round slow cooker with cooking spray. Reserve 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce. Spoon 1/2 cup enchilada sauce in slow cooker. Stir remaining enchilada sauce, taco seasoning mix, corn and black beans into beef mixture.

    Place 1 tortilla in center of slow cooker. Cut 1 tortilla in half; place each half on either side of whole tortilla. Spoon 1 1/3 cups beef mixture over tortillas; sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese.

    Cover; cook on Low heat setting 2 hours. Let stand 15 minutes. Garnish with cilantro.

  • Swap sharp cheddar cheese for Monterey Jack or a Mexican cheese blend, if desired.
  • Poblano chiles are mild chili peppers that are green in color and larger and skinnier in size than bell peppers. You can often find them in the produce section of your grocery store.
