Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground chuck
1 c medium thick and chunky salsa
1 pkg mild taco seasoning (1.5 oz)
1 pkg pillsbury crescent rolls (12 oz.)
1 can(s) refried beans (16 oz.)
1 pkg monterey jack cheese (8 oz.)

¼ c water
tinfoil

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. While the oven preheats brown the ground chuck then drain. Start heating the refried beans on the stove so they are nice and hot by the time you are done with the remaining steps.

  • 3. In a 9" x 13" glass dish lay the crescent rolls flat and press down with your fingers to create a bottom crust.
  • 4. Spread the heated refried beans in a layer over the crescent rolls.
  • 5. Add the beef mixture in a layer over the refried beans.
  • 6. In a small bowl combine the salsa with 1 cup of cheese then layer over the beef mixture.
  • 7. Use the remaining cheese to cover the entire top of the salsa mixture.
  • 8. Top with the chopped green onions.
  • 9. Cover with tinfoil and then bake in the 350ºF oven for 30 minutes on the middle rack.
  • 10. After 30 minutes remove the tinfoil, top the gooey cheese with the entire bag of crushed Frito Lays and bake for an additional 5 minutes on the lowest oven rack.
  • 11. ~ Enjoy.
