TACO RING (FROM PAMPERED CHEF)

Steps:

• Cook ground beef in large skillet over medium heat 7-9 minutes or until beef is no longer pink; drain.
• Remove pan from heat.
• Stir in taco seasoning mix, cheese and water.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Unroll crescent dough; separate into triangles.
• Arrange triangles in a circle on Classic Round Pizza Stone with wide ends overlapping in center and points toward outside. (There should be a 5 inch diameter opening in center.) I use my Pampered Chef pizza stone, but any flat round pan should work--perhaps even a pizza sheet, but I'd spray it with Pam before adding the crescent rolls.
• Scoop meat mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at center of ring. (Filling will not be completely covered).
• Bake at 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
• Shred lettuce and chop tomato, onion, olives, and bell pepper (if desired).
• If you want to do something fancy, scoop out a bell pepper and fill with salsa and put into center of ring.
• Add your toppings to top of ring and finish with more shredded cheese and sour cream.
• This is great with a salad.

TACO RING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 12 cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Heat vegetable oil in a saute pan over medium high heat. Add the ground beef and brown until cooked through.
• Add the tacos seasoning along with ¼ cup water. Stir until combined. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Place crescent rolls in the bundt pan by placing the thinner side of the triangle in the pan coming up a few inches on the tube of the pan. Allow the large side to rest on the outer edge of the pan.
• Mix remaining shredded cheese with the seasoned beef and add it to the pan. Fold the larger ends of the crescent rolls over the mixture. There should be a small gap between each roll.
• Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
• Turn out onto a sheet tray and sprinkle with remaining shredded cheese. Place back in oven until cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.
• Allow to rest for 10 minutes before removing from the pan.
• When ready to serve, place a small bowl in the center of the ring to create a bowl. Fill with guacamole then top with salsa. Garnish the ring with sliced scallions.

HOMEMADE TACO RING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Roll out dinner roll dough into a large circle (about 12-16 inches).
• Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut circle into pizza-like wedges (12-16 wedges).
• On an ungreased cookie sheet or pizza stone, arrange wedges in a sunburst looking ring with the wide ends toward the center of the baking stone & slightly overlapping each other. There will be an opening in the center of the ring with no dough in it. With your hands or a small pastry roller, press the wide ends of dough together & slightly in toward the middle of the ring to create a wide, solid base for the filling.
• Lay a sheet of foil or large tea towel over the dough to let rise while you are making the filling.
• Brown beef in large skillet or dutch oven, breaking into small taco sized pieces. Drain.
• Add taco seasoning & water to meat. Cook & stir til most of the liquid is absorbed & the seasoning has coated the meat. You may add a little extra water if needed, a Tablespoon at a time.
• Add peppers, onions, refried beans & cheese to meat mixture. Stir til combined.
• Spoon hot mixture over the wide ends of the dough, also in a ring pattern. I sometimes have extra filling depending on how many wedges I cut, but I usually just stuff it all in anyway.
• Bring the pointed ends of the wedges up & over the filling & tuck under the wide ends to encase the filling. Continue all the way around the ring. You will have some filling peeking out between wedges. Not only does it look pretty but makes for great cutting & serving lines.
• Bake uncovered for 10-15 minutes (We like ours a little doughy, so I use the least amount of time).
• Serve topped with any or all suggested toppings.
• Leftover taco ring can be refrigerated & is just as tasty reheated in the microwave the next day.

TACO RING

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Mix water and taco seasoning mix into ground beef; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until water is evaporated, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix ground beef mixture, 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese, and 1/2 of the sour cream together in a bowl.
• Roll crescent roll dough out onto a baking stone in the shape of a sunflower, with the triangle points pointing outward. Spread ground beef mixture onto dough in a circular shape. Wrap pointed end of dough around the beef mixture, sealing to the other end of dough making a ring-shape.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Serve alongside the remaining Cheddar cheese and sour cream.

• In a large skillet, mix taco seasoning into ground meat and brown.
• Drain meat.
• Spoon cooked meat filling into the dough ring.
• Top with chopped onion and chopped green pepper (optional) and grated cheese.
• Fold the wide end up and over the filling and fold the point up and over the wide end, closing and making a ring.
• Remove the drinking glass.
• Place into the oven for 10 minutes.
• Remove and place the ring onto a large platter.
• I use all the garnishes.
