Add taco seasoning and water; cook and stir until meat is coated, about 5 minutes more. Add enchilada sauce, refried beans, and corn; stir to combine.

Cook’s Note

The ingredients can be prepared ahead of time, and the casserole can be kept in the freezer for a no-mess meal. I cook it at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 to 60 minutes, or if frozen, until warmed through.
