TACO CRESCENT WREATH



Taco Crescent Wreath image

This is a Tex-Mex twist on the veggie pizza. The wreath is a nice presentation for the holidays, but the crescent rolls can be rolled flat and baked for a more traditional pizza-type crust. I use my own fresh salsa for the topping (on the side), but a chunky bottled version would work. The chipotle chiles add a nice heat to the creamy layer and their amount can be adjusted to your tastes. This recipe is from a Pillsbury appetizer cookbook.

CHICKEN, BROCCOLI AND CHEESE CRESCENT WREATH



Chicken, Broccoli and Cheese Crescent Wreath image

This is my neighbor's very simple, but good take off on a Pampered Chef recipe, using their large round stone. I have made this quite a few times since she shared her version with me. I have guessed at the amounts and you can too. It is very easy to eyeball. If you have mix left over, it is even good cooked in a small casserole without the rolls.

TACO RING (FROM PAMPERED CHEF)



Taco Ring (From Pampered Chef) image

I attended a Pampered Chef party and had this taco ring. I had ate them many times but was always to scared to make one. It's so easy--took me a few times to make it look pretty but it's really simple to do, just experiment around with it. My kids now request these instead of regular tacos. I was out of black olives tonight, so I used green--the toppings are your personal choice really! Makes 16 rolls but we can't eat just one!

Categories     Meat

Time 55m

Yield 16 pieces, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb lean ground beef
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
2 tablespoons water
2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
1 medium bell pepper
1 cup salsa
3 cups lettuce, shredded
1 medium tomatoes
1/4 cup onion, chopped (optional)
1/2 cup pitted ripe black olives (optional)
sour cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook ground beef in large skillet over medium heat 7-9 minutes or until beef is no longer pink; drain.
  • Remove pan from heat.
  • Stir in taco seasoning mix, cheese and water.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Unroll crescent dough; separate into triangles.
  • Arrange triangles in a circle on Classic Round Pizza Stone with wide ends overlapping in center and points toward outside. (There should be a 5 inch diameter opening in center.) I use my Pampered Chef pizza stone, but any flat round pan should work--perhaps even a pizza sheet, but I'd spray it with Pam before adding the crescent rolls.
  • Scoop meat mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough at center of ring. (Filling will not be completely covered).
  • Bake at 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Shred lettuce and chop tomato, onion, olives, and bell pepper (if desired).
  • If you want to do something fancy, scoop out a bell pepper and fill with salsa and put into center of ring.
  • Add your toppings to top of ring and finish with more shredded cheese and sour cream.
  • This is great with a salad.

Tips:
