Ingredients
Meat
- • 1 lb Ground beef
Produce
- • 1 Lettuce
Baking & Spices
- • 1 package Taco seasoning mix
Bread & Baked Goods
- • 2 cans Pillsbury crescent rolls, refrigerated Original
Dairy
- • 1 cup Cheddar
Liquids
- • 1/2 cup Water
Directions:
- Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. - Cook the Ground Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning and follow the packet instructions (usually adding a bit of water) to combine. Cook until the mixture thickens, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly. - Prepare the Crescent Dough
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circle on the prepared baking sheet, with the wider ends overlapping slightly in the center, creating a ring. The points of the triangles should face outward, resembling a sunburst. - Fill with Beef Mixture
Spoon the taco-seasoned beef mixture onto the wide ends of the crescent dough, spreading it evenly around the ring. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the beef. - Form the Ring
Take the pointed ends of each triangle and fold them over the beef mixture, tucking them under the dough at the center of the ring. Continue around until the entire ring is formed, with the beef and cheese mixture partially visible. - Bake the Taco Ring
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through. - Add Toppings and Serve
Let the taco ring cool slightly, then add toppings like shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, olives, green onions, sour cream, salsa, or guacamole in the center or around the ring for a festive presentation.
Slice and enjoy this fun and delicious Taco Crescent Ring!
