# Directions:
01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed sheet pan (approximately 18 by 13 inches) with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
02 - In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
03 - Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened.
04 - Stir in the taco seasoning and water, then simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
05 - Add the thawed corn, drained black beans, and sliced green onions to the skillet. Stir to combine evenly.
06 - Place six tortillas on the prepared sheet pan, overlapping edges and allowing half of each to hang over the edge. Place one tortilla in the center to cover gaps.
07 - Spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly over the tortillas, then sprinkle with cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
08 - Fold the overhanging tortilla edges toward the center, covering the filling. Place the final tortilla in the center if needed to seal the contents.
09 - Brush the top of the folded tortillas with olive oil or spray lightly with cooking spray. Place a second sheet pan on top to weigh down the quesadillas.
10 - Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the top sheet pan and bake an additional 5 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
11 - Allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve with optional salsa, sour cream, chopped cilantro, and lime wedges.
