This is a family favorite. We love tacos but out of season we are unable to get good veggies to make regular tacos and it looks pretty when complete. I did see a similar recipe online but the ingredients I have are a little different, mostly qty. So I guess it is up to you which you use.

Transfer the beef to a Classic Batter Bowl. Stir in the taco seasoning mix, 1 ½ cups of the cheese, and water.Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 16 triangles. Arrange the triangles, slightly overlapping, in a circle on a Large Round Stone with the wide ends of the triangles overlapping in the center and points toward the outside.

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!

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

  • 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.

Tips:

  • If you don't have taco seasoning, you can make your own by combining chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Use a large bowl to mix the taco meat, cream cheese, and sour cream. This will help to ensure that all of the ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Press the taco mixture into a 9-inch springform pan. Be sure to press the mixture firmly so that it holds together.
  • Bake the taco ring for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Let the taco ring cool for 10 minutes before serving. This will help to prevent the ring from falling apart.
