Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
- 1 pound lean ground beef (minimum 80% lean)
- 3/4 cup thick and chunky salsa
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles. Arrange in an ungreased 9-inch square pan or 10-inch pie plate, pressing over the bottom and up the sides to create a uniform crust.
- Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook ground beef for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
- Add salsa and taco seasoning to the cooked beef. Stir thoroughly and let simmer for 5 minutes to blend flavors.
- Distribute the seasoned beef mixture evenly over the crescent roll crust. Sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese uniformly over the filling.
- Place pan in oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the crust is deep golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Remove from oven and top with shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes as desired. Serve warm.
