Taco Ring Recipe

I recently learned how to make a fast and easy dinner.  It might not be the healthiest because it does use store bought crescent rolls, however the rest is just fine and if you have time:  make your own crescent rolls!

Ingredients:

2 cans of crescent rolls
1 pound of ground beef, lean
southwestern spice or taco seasoning
1 1/2 cup cheddar cheese

Preheat your oven to 375.  Get out your favorite stone, one that will hold a nice sized circle of food.  Get out your favorite skillet and brown the meat.  Drain the meat of the fat and then throw in some southwestern seasoning or a taco mix.  If using a taco mix, you should add in a tablespoon or so of water.  Place this in a bowl and add in your cheese and mix well.

Now take your crescent rolls and open one package.  Unroll them one at a time and place in a circle with the larger part towards the center.  Make the opening of the circle about six to eight inches and continue to lay down the rolls over lapping.  Remember that you have two cans, so the first can should only make 1/2 the circle.  Now finish the circle with the second can of crescent rolls.

Carefully place the meat on the thick part of the crescent rolls...all the way around.  Now flip the tip of the crescent roll up and over to the center.  Put in the over and bake from 20 to 25 minutes...or until golden brown.  You can brush the top with egg white before cooking if you would like.

Serve with sour cream, tomatoes, onions, black olives and any other taco topping that you like!

Enjoy!
