Taco ring:

I have had a few people ask me if the Taco Ring was easy and if they could have the recipe.

First of all, if Wendi cooked it, it was easy.

Secondly, I can't believe I am doing this since posting a recipe sort of goes against everything I stand for as a "typical jock", but here are the easy instructions, courtesy of my friend Erica!

Taco ring:

• 1/2 - 1 lb. cooked ground beef depending on how bulky you like it
• 1 pkg taco seasoning
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 Tbs water2
• 8oz pkg crescent roll dough

The rest are just optional sides:

• 1 med green pepper
• 1/2 head lettuce, shredded
• 1 med tomato, diced
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1/2 cup sliced black olives
• Sour cream

Instructions:

• Heat oven to 375° F.
• Combine meat, taco mix, cheese, and water.
• Arrange crescent triangles in a circle with bases overlapping and points out.
• Sompe people leave a 5" circle in center and fill the pepper with salsa for display.
• Spoon meat on triangle bases. Fold points over meat and tuck under.
• Bake 20-25 min until brown.
• Cut off the top of the pepper. Fill pepper with salsa and place in center of ring (if want)
• Mound lettuce, tomato, onions, and olives around pepper. Garnish with sour cream.
