How to Make 7 Layer Tortilla Pie

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Mash 1 (15-ounce) can of pinto beans in a large bowl. Stir in ¾ cup salsa and 1 clove minced garlic.
3. In a separate bowl, combine ¼ cup salsa, ½ cup chopped cilantro, 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), and 1 cup chopped tomatoes.
4. Place 1 (10-inch) flour tortilla in a 9-inch pie plate or tart dish.
5. Spread ¾ cup of the pinto bean mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving ½ inch border.
6. Sprinkle with ¼ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack). Cover with another tortilla.
7. Spread ⅔ cup of the black bean mixture over the second tortilla. Sprinkle with ¼ cup shredded cheese.
8. Repeat layers (tortilla, pinto bean mixture, cheese, black bean mixture, cheese) twice more.
9. Top with the last tortilla. Spread the remaining pinto bean mixture and cheese over the top tortilla.
10. Cover the pie with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes.
11. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tortillas are lightly browned.
12. Let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into wedges. Serve warm with your favorite salsa and sour cream.
