Taco Pie on Crescent Rolls
Ingredients:
1 (8-ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls (Regular or reduced fat)
1 1/2 pound lean ground beef (To double: I divided 3lbs between 2 pies)
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 green bell pepper, diced
½ onion, diced
3 ounces shredded Mexican-style cheese blend
Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, sour cream, shredded lettuce, jalapenos, cilantro, hot sauce, salsa
Instructions:
Set oven to 350 degrees F.
Cover your round or square cake pan with the crescent dough flat on the bottom. I used an 8X8 square pan. Bake according to package instructions.
While your crust is baking in the oven, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat on the stovetop. Cook the beef until no longer pink. Drain. Add the diced bell pepper and onion and cook until the peppers look a little soft. Add the taco seasoning and mix.
When the crust is finished baking, add the beef mixture to the crust and layer with cheese. Place back in the oven and bake for another 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Add toppings of your choice!
