Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the Beef Filling:
    • In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
    • Return the beef to the skillet and add the taco seasoning mix and ½ cup of water. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the mixture has slightly thickened.
    • In a medium heatproof bowl, mix the beef mixture with shredded cheddar cheese. Allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the crescent dough.
  3. Prepare the Crescent Ring:
    • Unroll both cans of crescent dough and separate into 16 triangles.
    • On an ungreased large cookie sheet, arrange the triangles in a ring shape, placing the short sides of the triangles in a 5-inch circle in the center. The dough will overlap, and the ring should resemble the sun.
  4. Assemble the Ring:
    • Spoon the beef and cheese mixture onto the half of each triangle closest to the center of the ring.
    • Fold each dough triangle over the filling, tucking the dough under the bottom layer of dough to secure it. Continue around the ring until the filling is enclosed. Some of the filling might show a little.
  5. Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
    • Allow the crescent ring to cool for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into serving slices.

Optional Toppings:

  • Serve with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced ripe olives, and taco sauce or salsa, as desired.

Conclusion:

This Taco Crescent Ring is a crowd-pleaser that combines the best of both worlds—taco flavors and crescent roll dough. With its golden, flaky exterior and savory beef and cheese filling, it’s a versatile dish that can be customized with your favorite taco toppings. Enjoy this delicious and easy-to-make recipe with family and friends!
