Preparation
1
Prep

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Peel, then coarsely grate carrots using a box grater. Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Zest, then juice half the lime (NOTE: whole lime for 4 ppl). Cut any remaining lime into wedges. Roughly chop cilantro.

2
Cook beef mixture

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then beef and carrots. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.\*\* Carefully drain and discard excess fat. Add Mexican Seasoning and corn. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min. Remove pan from heat, then stir in half the cheese. Season with salt and pepper.

3
Assemble tortilla stack

Arrange a tortilla on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Top with 1/3 cup of the beef mixture and spread in an even layer. Top with another tortilla and repeat until all the beef mixture is used up, finishing with a tortilla. Sprinkle over remaining cheese. Bake in middle of oven until tortillas and heated through and cheese melts, 5-7 min. (NOTE: Assemble 1 stack for 2 ppl or 2 stacks for 4 ppl)

4
Make salsa

Stir together tomatoes, half the lime juice, half the cilantro, 1/2 tsp sugar and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl) in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

5
Make lime crema

Stir together sour cream, lime zest and remaining lime juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

6
Finish and serve

Using a bread knife, cut tortilla stack into wedges (like a cake). Divide wedges between plates and top with lime crema and salsa. Sprinkle over remaining cilantro and squeeze over a lime wedge, if desired.
