Heat oil in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper, saute 4 minutes. Scoot to the far side.

Add garlic, chili powder and cumin and cook 1 minute longer.
Stir in black beans, tomatoes, corn, water, lime juice, and cilantro and remove from heat.
To assemble casserole, layer 10 tortilla halves along bottom of baking dish, work to cover whole bottom surface as best possible.
Spoon and spread 1/3 of the beef mixture over tortilla layer.
