  1. 1 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add black beans, shredded turkey, 1 cup salsa, corn, water, and taco seasoning; mix well. Cover and simmer until flavors meld, about 5 minutes.
  2. 2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil; top with remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese. Continue baking until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more.
