Who doesn’t love tacos and pizza? I definitely like tacos more than my boyfriend does, and he could eat pizza like nobodies business (I am not even joking, he would eat it daily if I didn’t say no). This is one recipe I was able to make to our liking. Ground beef is something I cannot eat, I have never been able to eat it even before I started to cut out meats. So for this recipe I made one pan of dough, but put half ground beef and half Gardein™ Beefless Ground. We also adjusted the toppings a little bit. It was a hit!
- 2 tubes (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
- 1 pound ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 envelope taco seasoning
mix or 2 Tbsp homemade taco seasoning
- 1 medium tomato, chopped (we didn’t use many tomatoes)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- Olives
- Jalepenos
- Black Beans
- Onions
- Avocado/Guac
- Salsa
- Extra Sour Cream
Preheat the oven to 375° and pull out a large cookie sheet.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and lay out in the ungreased cookie sheet. Pinch the perforations together to seal. Don’t worry about it being perfect; you just don’t want any big gaps.
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes or until light golden brown and cool.
Beat together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until it’s easy to spread.
Spread over the cooled crust.
Chill in the refrigerator for 10-20 minutes, while you’re working on the next step.
Brown the ground beef in a skillet and drain any grease. Stir in the taco seasoning and water (according to the package directions on the taco seasoning packet.) (Do same with beefless grounds)
Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pull the cream cheese/crescent roll crust out of the refrigerator and sprinkle evenly with the ground beef. (beefless grounds)
You won’t completely cover the cream cheese layer with the ground beef; there’s plenty of other toppings so don’t worry.
Sprinkle other toppings, cut and serve!
