Beef Taco Ring



Okay, so the picture doesn't do it justice, but this is one of my more deceivingly impressive-looking meals. So easy. So good. Bring on the compliments.

1 lb ground beef/turkey, cooked
1 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp water
1 clove garlic, minced

Combine in a bowl, set aside.

Take 2 cans of Pillsbury crescent rolls (I use the reduced fat. Seriously, you can't tell.) and divide into triangles. Arrange 1 can (8 triangles) in a circle on a pan with tips facing out -- looks like a sun. Arrange the other 8 triangles in a circle facing inward, with the bottoms (fat part) meeting the bottoms of the first can.
Scoop meat mixture on the triangles where the bottoms meet, all the way around the circle. Then fold the tops of the triangles up over in a criss-cross pattern (start with an "in" then use an "out"). Tuck all the edges under.

Bake at 350 degrees, 20-25 mins.
