Need A Quick Easy Dinner? [VIDEO]

What’s for dinner?  I’m hungry!  This is what you hear at my house all the time.  Sometimes it’s the kids asking.  After a long day of work, especially if mom and dad both work, you don’t want to slave over a hot stove, especially in the middle of summer.  Here is a pretty simple quick dinner that even I can pull off.  Hey, if I can do it,  you can do it.  This is a favorite at my house.  Check out the video to see how to arrange the dough.

1 Pound Ground Beef
1 Package (1.25 oz.) Taco Seasoning Mix
1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Water (as called for on seasoning packet)
2 8-oz tubes of refrigerated crescent rolls

Optional Center Ingredients
1 medium green bell pepper
1 Cup Salsa
3 Cups lettuce, shredded
1 medium tomato, diced
¼ Cup onion, chopped
½ cup pitted black olives
Sour Cream

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°. Brown ground beef according to taco seasoning package. Add cheese, onions, peppers, etc...
   2. Unroll the crescent dough; separate into triangles. Spray pizza pan with cooking spray. Arrange triangles in a circle on a pizza pan with the wide ends toward the center of the pan, overlapping each other. It should look like a sun, with a large opening in the center. Spoon the meat mixture evenly onto widest end of each triangle. Bring points of triangles up over filling and tuck under wide ends of dough. (There should be gaps where filling is showing). Bake 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.
   3. Fill center with the optional toppings or, leave empty. A cute idea is to cut off the top of the pepper and hollow it out, then use the pepper as a salsa bowl.

Of course, you can add any of your own favorites, or omit some of these ingredients if you like.  Sometimes I add black beans, and if I’m really a glutton for punishment, I’ll add some jalapenos.  Yum!
