Crescent Taco Ring


    Ingredients:

    Prep time: 20 min. Cook time: 25 min. Total time: 45 min.  Servings: 8



 
    • 1 lb ground beef (or 2 cups shredded cooked chicken)
    • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
    • 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package lawry's taco seasoning (or homemade)
    • 2 tablespoons water
    • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or taco blend)
    • 1/4 cup crushed tortilla chips
    • 2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

    Optional Garnishes


    Directions:

    1. Cook ground beef in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat until browned, about 8-10 minutes (drain any excess fat).
    2. Add the chopped green chilies, seasoning mix, shredded cheese and water; mix thoroughly. Remove from heat.
     
    3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
     
    4. Unroll crescent dough onto a work surface and sprinkle with the crushed tortilla chips; press down gently. Separate into about 16 triangles.

    5. Arrange triangles chip side down in a circle on a 12 or 13-inch round pizza pan (or baking stone), with wide ends overlapping in center and points toward the outside. (The open circle in the middle should be 5" diameter).
     
    6. Lightly press wide ends together to form a smooth wide base for the filling.
     
    7. Spoon meat filling evenly over wide ends of triangles. Bring points of triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at center of ring. The filling will be visible.
     
    8. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
     
    9. To Garnish:
     
    10. Mix together the salsa with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and a teaspoon of chopped cilantro. Scoop out the bell pepper and fill with salsa mixture. Place into center of ring.
     
    11. Arrange the lettuce, tomato, onion and sliced olives around the pepper centerpiece. Garnish with sour cream.
     
    12. To serve, cut into slices and serve with desired garnishes. Enjoy!

    Week five:  
    Hatred stirs up trouble, but love forgives all wrongs.
    Proverbs 10:12
     
    Week six: 
    The grass dies and the flowers fall, but the word of our God will live forever.
    Isaiah 40:8
     
    Week seven:
    Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud. Love is not rude, is not selfish, and does not get upset with others. Love does not count up wrongs that have been done. Love is not happy with evil but is happy with the truth. Love patiently accepts all things. It always trusts, always hopes, and always remains strong.  
    1 Corinthians 13:4-7
     
    Week eight: 
    "I told you these things so that you can have peace in me. In this world you will have trouble, but be brave! I have defeated the world."  
    John 16:33
     
    Week nine: 
    God has chosen you and made you his holy people. He loves you. So always do these things: Show mercy to others, be kind, humble, gentle, and patient. Get along with each other, and forgive each other. If someone does wrong to you, forgive that person because the Lord forgave you. Do all these things; but most important, love each other. Love is what holds you all together in perfect unity.  
    Colosians 3:12-14
