Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef I used 85% lean
- 1 1 oz package taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or cheese combination
- 2 8 oz cans Pillsbury refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
- Optional - shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced black olives, chopped avocado, sliced radishes, taco ranch dressing or chili con queso
Instructions
- 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. Let cool for a few mintes.Unroll both cans of dough. Cut along lines with a small sharp knife, separating dough 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 tip of dough under bottom center layer of dough to secure it. If you have too much dough to tuck under the center, spread your filling mound out a little bit so there's just a small amount of dough left to tuck under. 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.
