Taco Crescent Ring
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 package (1 oz) taco seasoning mix
1/2 cup water
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 oz)
2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
Directions
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef until no longer pink.
- Add taco seasoning mix and 1/2 cup water. Simmer 3 to 4 minutes or until slightly thickened.
- In medium bowl, mix beef mixture and cheese.
- Unroll both cans of dough; separate into 16 triangles.
- On ungreased large cookie sheet, arrange triangles in ring so short sides of triangles form a 5-inch circle in center. Dough will overlap. Dough ring should look like the sun.
- Spoon beef mixture on the half of each triangle closest to center of ring.
- Bring each dough triangle up over filling, tucking dough under bottom layer of dough to secure it. Repeat around ring until entire filling is enclosed (some filling might show a little).
- Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until dough is golden brown and thoroughly baked.
- Cool 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into serving slices.
- Add shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced ripe olives, taco sauce or salsa, as desired.
