Recipe Background

We decided to combine two of our favorite things and the results are quite mouthwatering. Taco Snacks bring together one of our favorite cuisines thanks to the taco-seasoned beef, and wraps it in flaky crescent rolls. The handheld convenience of these bites makes them perfect for snack time, which is our favorite part of the day. Filling and fun, Taco Snacks are where it's at and bring the best of both our beloveds! This is why they always say to focus on your passions!

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
1/4 cup water
2 (8-ounce 8-count) cans crescent rolls
1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
2 tablespoons green onions diced, for serving
salsa to taste, for serving

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and cook, while crumbling, until it is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain the excess grease.
Add the taco seasoning and the water to the cooked beef and stir to combine. Cook, about 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the skillet from the heat.
Roll out both cans of the crescent rolls on a piece of parchment paper and separate them into their respective perforated triangles.
Add equal spoonfuls of the beef mixture about 1 inch from the top of the wide edge of each of the crescent roll triangles and evenly sprinkle with the cheese.
Starting at the wide edge of the crescent roll triangles, roll the dough over the filling to the small triangle tip.
Place the filled crescents in a baking dish and bake, about 10-12 minutes.
Sprinkle the taco crescents with the green onions.
Serve the taco crescents with the salsa.
