How to Make Baked Taco Ring

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, brown 1 lb ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain excess grease.
  3. Add 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning, 1/2 cup water, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup diced onion (optional) to the cooked beef. Mix well.
  4. Lightly grease a 12-inch pizza pan or round baking stone.
  5. Unroll 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough. Separate into triangles.
  6. Arrange crescent triangles in a circle on the prepared pan, overlapping the larger sides slightly in the center and pointing outwards to form a ring.
  7. Spoon the beef mixture evenly over the crescent dough.
  8. Fold the points of the triangles over the filling and tuck under the base in the center.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  10. While the ring bakes, prepare your toppings: 1 cup shredded lettuce, 1/2 cup diced tomatoes, 1/4 cup sliced black olives, 1/4 cup diced red onion, and your favorite salsa.
  11. Cut the top off a bell pepper (any color).
  12. Fill the bell pepper with salsa and place it in the center of the baked ring.
  13. Mound the lettuce, tomatoes, olives, and red onion around the bell pepper.
  14. Garnish with sour cream and serve immediately.
