Tasty Tuesday - Recipe time!!




This is a recipe from Pampered Chef

Taco Ring:

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 small onion (diced)
1 package taco seasoning mix
2 (8 oz.) packages of Crescent rolls
1 cup shredded cheddar

Toppings
1/4 cup of chopped black olives
2 tomatoes (chopped)
Bag of shredded lettuce
1 large green or red pepper (optional)
Salsa and/or sour cream

Brown the ground beef, drain excess fat. Mix in the package of taco seasoning and onion. Set aside.





On a large pizza stone or baking pan, separate the crescent roll triangles and assemble them in a circular pattern with the small edge of the triangle inward towards the center. (You want to create a donut shape with a small hole in the middle)



Place meat on the crescent roll towards the "hole" to form a ring. Sprinkle shredded cheese over top of meat.





Then take the outer corners of the crescent rolls, lift them up over the meat, press and seal on the inside edge of the crescent roll (when finished this will look like a big donut or ring)




Bake at 350* for 15-20 minutes. Carefully slide onto large plate.




Then fill the "center" of ring (on the serving plate) with your "toppings: shredded lettuce, tomatoes, olives, peppers. You could put small dollops of sour cream "dotting" the ring... or just throw the toppings into individuals serving bowls and everyone fixes their own taco ring...

Simple... Delicious... Enjoy!
