1 yellow onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced

salsa, topping
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place tortillas on baking sheet and bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown; flipping halfway through.
Heat small amount of oil in skillet; saute onions and peppers just until translucent. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Add taco seasoning and 1/4 cup water, and stir until incorporated and liquid reduces. Add frozen corn and cook until warmed.
