Taco Ring

Should have been more creative and put a tablecloth underneath...sorry:( Pretend the stove top is pretty!!

 1-1½ lb ground Beef (I use Ground Turkey)
1 package dry Taco Seasoning mix (I like McCormick Cheesy Taco)
1¾ C. Shredded Cheddar Cheese
2Tbsp. Water
1 Egg White, lightly beaten
2 cans Refrigerated Pop Can Crescent Rolls

Optional Toppings:
Salsa
Sour Cream
(That's all I use)
Lettuce, shredded
Tomato, diced
Onion, diced
Olives, sliced


Brown meat. Add seasoning packet and water. Stir to combine. Add 1½C. cheese. Stir to combine. Set aside.  Pull apart and roll open crescent rolls leaving them in flat triangles. On a round pan (I use a pizza stone) Arrange triangles, slightly overlapping the bottoms of each triangle, forming a circle around the edge of the pan (the tips of the triangles will hang over the pan for now) Press overlapping edges of triangles  down flat. Scoop meat mixture (I use an ice cream scooper) in a circle around the bottom edges of the triangles that you just pressed together. So now you have a ring of meat scoops covering the bottom edges of your triangles. Pull the tops of the triangles over the top of the scoops of meat and tuck the vary tips of each triangle underneath the ring. Meat filling will show a little between each triangle. Brush the top of the ring with egg white and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake @ 375 for 25-30 min.
