Taco Roll Ups

Taco Roll Ups

This Taco Roll Ups recipe surprisingly worked!

Ya know how some nights dinner just doesn’t go as planned?

Well this started as one of those nights.

The store didn’t have the single sheet of crescent rolls, you know, the ones with no seams. So I went with a regular roll…I like to live on edge every now and again.

Well guess what?! They worked perfectly!

Maybe not as picture perfect as I hoped, but abso-freaking-lutely delicious!

How to make Taco Roll Ups

I rolled the crescent roll dough flat and pinched those seams together as best I could.

Sprinkle half pound of cooked taco meat and a cup of cheese.

Ok, this taco meat was leftover.

If you do brown up a pound of meat with one of those taco packet thingys and only use half, there are lots of options for using it as leftovers.

Nachos…tacos…taco salad…taco dip etc.

adding beef and cheese

Anyhoo, roll up the dough with all the yummy taco meat and cheese.

If you are lucky enough to have the seamless crescent dough, yours won’t look like it’s about ready to burst.

I was a little nervous at this point!

Miraculously they all made it on the lined baking sheet.

Some held it together more than others, but I knew they all would at least taste good!

These bake in a 375 degree oven for 12-15 minutes.

And hey, look at this good looking fella who held it together more than a few of his friends did 🙂

Honestly none of them looked bad, some were just more uneven than others.

Top these Taco Roll Ups with whatever toppings you like.

We opted for sour cream, cilantro, and a little hot sauce.

Lettuce would be another great topping.

These were an instant hit with the kids!

No complaints at all during dinner time is a definite mom win 🙂
