1 3/4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
One 16-ounce can fat-free refried beans
Two 4-ounce cans whole green chiles, drained and cut lengthwise into quarters
1 cup (4 ounces) pre-shredded colby-Jack cheese, divided
1 cup frozen whole-kernel corn, thawed and drained
