Add 1 1/4 cups water in a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, core then cut bell pepper into ½ inch pieces. Thinly slice green onions. Drain and rinse black beans.
Add rice to pot of boiling water. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
While rice cooks, heat a large pot over medium heat. When hot add 1 tbsp oil, then beef and Mexican seasoning. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min. When beef is done, transfer to a plate and set aside.
Heat the same pot over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then bell pepper and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp, 4-5 min. Season with salt and pepper. Add beef and any juices (from the plate).
Fluff the rice with a fork. Add rice, tomatoes, corn and beans to pan with beef and veggies. Stir together until heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer beef mixture to a lightly-oiled 9x13-inch baking dish.
Sprinkle top with cheddar cheese. Broil in the middle of the oven until cheese melts, 3-4 min. Divide easy cheesy Tex-Mex bake between plates. Dollop over sour cream and sprinkle with green onions.
