Taco Pie


This dish ROCKS and it's so easy! No, it's not Gluten Free. I have to work on making a GF version. Till then, enjoy!

TACO PIE
1 lb very lean ground beef, turkey or chicken
1/2 packet low sodium taco seaoning
1/4 to 1/2 cup water
2 packages refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 cup sour cream
1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup prepared salsa (I used Pace Mild)

Brown ground beef, turkey or chicken. Add taco seasoning and 1/4 to 1/2 cup (mixture should not be too dry or too wet). Cook over medium heat for approx 5 minutes.

In the meantime, unroll one tube of crescent rolls and place on bottom of 9" x 13" baking dish. Press seams together and sprad out to cover bottom of pan. Bake in 375 degree oven (gas mark 5) untill the rolls just start to brown. Remove from oven.

Cover cooked dough with the meat mixture. Spread sour cream over the meat mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and scatter salsa over the cheese. Unroll the second tube of crescent roll dough. Carefully spread over the top pinching together seams where possible. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until bubbly and the top is golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

You can also cut this recipe in half as it does make a lot.
