1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
3. Stir in the taco seasoning, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, until heated through.
4. While the meat mixture cooks, press each tortilla into a muffin tin to form cups. You may need to trim the edges slightly to fit.
5. Bake the tortilla cups for 8-10 minutes until they are golden and crispy.
6. Remove the tortilla cups from the oven and fill each one with the seasoned meat mixture.
7. Top each taco cup with a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese. Return to the oven for another 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
8. Once out of the oven, let them cool for a couple of minutes before carefully removing them from the muffin tin.
