Ingredients

1 pound extra lean ground beef

6 reduced-fat refrigerated biscuits, such as pillsbury Grands

1 envelope taco seasoning mix

1/4 cup water

1 can (14 1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes

1 cup store bought salsa-cheese, such as Pace or Old El Paso

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 450

place beef in a 12 inch nonstick skillet over high heat, cook, turning and breaking up the meat, until it is crumbled and brown.

meanwhile, use a rolling pin to flatten each bisuit until it measures about 4 1/2 inches accross and is 1/4 inch thick. Place flattened bisuits on and ungreased baking sheet.

When meat is browned, stir in the taco seasoning mix and water. Remove skillet from the heat. Place 2 tablespoons of meat in the center of each biscuit. Leave any meat you have leftover in the skillet. fold the dough over the meat to form a turnover, and press down edges with the tines of a fork to seal.

Bake about 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, add the tomatoes with their juice and the salsa-cheese sauce to the skillet with the leftover meat. cook until heated through.

To serve place turnovers on individual plates and top with the sauce.

I was planning on making this tonight but realized I bought crescent rolls instead of biscuits. I might try it anyway LOL

Just wrap in crescents and put sauce on top. They sound good!

That should work, just make the crescent dough piece as close the biscuit measurement. I like this a lot, thanks.

This sounds great....another idea is to put the dough in muffin tins and add the ingredients and bake. We even do this with BBQ meat. Thanks
