Ingredients
For the ring:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 (1-ounce) package taco seasoning mix
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
Optional toppings:
- lettuce, to taste, shredded and chopped
- tomatoes, to taste, chopped
- sour cream, to taste
- salsa, to taste
- guacamole, to taste
Directions
Step 1 –Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
Step 2 –In a nonstick pan, cook the beef until it has browned.
Step 3 –Stir in the taco seasoning and the water.
Step 4 –Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes. In a medium-sized bowl, mix the beef mixture and the cheese together.
Step 5 –Separate both cans of the dinner roll dough into 16 perforated triangles.
Step 6 –On a large greased baking sheet, arrange the triangles in a ring formation so the short sides of the triangles form a circle in the center. The dough should be overlapping to form a sun shape.
Step 7 –Spoon the beef mixture onto the half of each of the triangles closest to the center of the ring.
Step 8 –Bring the other half of each dough triangle over to cover the filling, tucking the dough under the bottom layer of the dough firmly.
Step 9 –Repeat around the rest of the ring until all the filling is enclosed. It’s okay if the filling peeks through some of the dough.
Step 10 –Bake until the dough is golden-brown and completely baked, about 20-25 minutes. Allow the taco ring to cool, about 5-10 minutes.
Step 11 –Top with the desired optional toppings, slice, and serve.
