Taco Ring

Here's a simple recipe for ya! This Taco Ring is a great way to switch up your taco routine, and makes for good leftovers.

Now, this is nothing new, or rocket science. In fact, the whole phenomenon of stuffing things in a crescent roll ring is possibly dated, but who cares, it tastes fantastic!! Thank you, Pampered Chef :)

Ingredients:

2 cans crescent rolls

1 egg white, lightly whisked

1-1.5 lbs lean ground beef

1 pkg taco seasoning

1 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I had Mexican variety on hand)

2 Tbsp water

Taco toppings of your choosing

It's simple, really. 

Preheat the oven to 375

Brown the ground beef

While that's going, unroll the dough into a circle on a baking stone (or cookie sheet coated with spray)

Drain the ground beef first, then add the package of taco mix

Add 1 1/2 cups of the cheese

2 Tbsp water

Mix it up!

Place into the middle of the ring

Pull the points of the dough over and pinch in the center to seal

Brush with lightly whisked egg white

Top with remaining shredded cheese and bake for 25 minutes

Yum!

Top with your favorite taco sides. I added:

shredded lettuce

chopped red bell pepper

salsa

sour cream

Pancho's dressing (omg, delicious, I think it's only sold in Mid-South grocery stores)

There you have it! SO good!
