<\/span>Ingredients<\/span><\/h3>
  • 1<\/span> lb<\/span> ground beef<\/span><\/li>
  • 1<\/span> (1 oz) packet<\/span> Taco Seasoning Mix<\/span><\/li>
  • \u00bd<\/span> cup<\/span> water<\/span><\/li>
  • 1<\/span> cup (4 oz)<\/span> shredded cheddar cheese<\/span><\/li>
  • 2<\/span> (8 oz) cans<\/span> refrigerated Pillsbury\u2122 Original Crescent Rolls (8 Count)<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div>

    <\/span>Toppings<\/span><\/h4>
    • Shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced ripe olives, taco sauce or salsa, optional<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n

      <\/span>Instructions<\/span><\/h3>
      • Heat oven to 375\u00b0F. <\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef until no longer pink. Drain beef; return to skillet. Add taco seasoning mix and 1\/2 cup water. Simmer 3 to 4 minutes or until slightly thickened. In medium heatproof bowl, mix beef mixture and cheese. Let cool while preparing the crescent ring.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Unroll both cans of dough; separate into 16 triangles. On ungreased large baking sheet, arrange triangles in ring so short sides of triangles form a 5-inch circle in center. Dough will overlap; dough ring should look like the sun.<\/div><\/li>
      • Spoon beef mixture on the half of each triangle closest to center of ring.<\/div><\/li>
      • Bring each dough triangle up over filling, tucking dough under bottom layer of dough to secure it. Repeat around ring until entire filling is enclosed (some filling might show a little).<\/div><\/li>
      • Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until dough is golden brown and thoroughly baked. Cool 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into serving slices.<\/div><\/li>
      • Sprinkle desired toppings over the crescent ring before serving, or onto individual portions.<\/span><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n

        <\/div>\n
        <\/span>Refrigerator Storage<\/span><\/h6>\nStore in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Be sure to store leftovers within 2 hours of finishing preparation.<\/span>

          \n
