This meat-filled pastry ring has been a classic Pampered Chef recipe for many years!

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1½ lb (700 g) lean (90%) ground beef
1 pkg (1-1.25 oz/30-35 g) taco seasoning mix
1¾ cups (7 oz/200 g) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
2 tbsp (45 mL) water
2 pkg (8 oz /250 g each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 egg white, lightly beaten
Optional toppings: salsa, shredded lettuce, chopped onion and tomato, sliced olives, and sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the ground beef in a 10" (24-cm) Skillet over medium heat for 10-12 minutes or until it's no longer pink, breaking beef into crumbles, then drain. 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. There should be a 5" (13-cm)-diameter opening in the center of the stone. The narrow triangle points of dough will extend off the edge of the baking stone.Using a Large Scoop, scoop the filling evenly over the dough in a continuous circle. Bring the points of triangles up over the filling and tuck them under the dough at center to form a ring. (Filling will show.) Brush the top with the egg white. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until it is golden brown. Serve with toppings.

Tips:

  • For a crispy taco ring, use a flaky or puff pastry dough. If the dough is too thick, it will be difficult to roll and the taco ring will not be as crispy.
  • Use a variety of fillings and toppings to create a taco ring that is both flavorful and visually appealing. Some popular fillings include seasoned ground beef, chicken, beans, and vegetables. Common toppings include cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
  • Be careful not to overfill the taco ring, or it will be difficult to fold and seal. Leave about an inch of space around the edges of the dough.
  • Bake the taco ring until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is heated through. This will usually take about 20-30 minutes.
  • Let the taco ring cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out.

Conclusion:

The Mexican Taco Ring is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy pastry shell, flavorful filling, and variety of toppings, the taco ring is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a fun and festive dish to serve, give the Mexican Taco Ring a try.
