Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb ground beef
1 package (1 oz) Old El Paso™ taco seasoning mix
1/2 cup water
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 oz)
2 cans (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls (8 Count)

  • Unroll both cans of dough; separate into 16 triangles. On ungreased large cookie 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.

  • 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).

TANGY CUCUMBER SLAW FOR TACOS



Tangy Cucumber Slaw for Tacos image

I took the base of Martha Stewart's cucumber radish slaw and changed it up. This is great on top of tacos or with pork. You can use it like any other coleslaw. It's super tangy if you like a vinegar in-your-face tangy-type taste. I wanted to make a slaw without mayo to make a lower-fat version.

TACO-CUCUMBER SALAD



Taco-Cucumber Salad image

I'm living in France right now, and my parents sent me a care package including taco seasoning mix! Tonight I was trying to figure out what to do with the 2 cucumbers someone sold me by mistake (I guess when you run out of courgettes you just sell cucumbers?!?!) because I'm not a big cucumber fan. I figured it couldn't hurt. Mmm. Tangy. Warning: do not try this if you don't like sour. I didn't add any sugar at all. Warning 2: I don't measure, I eyeball. I'll list ingredients, but it's up to you how much to add.
