What's Cookin'...Thursday??

We've been blessed this week to have had supper brought to us on Tuesday by my sister and her husband and cooked for us on Wednesday by my good friend, Tonja (aka Trevor's mom).

Due to the huge response I got for the Chicken and Broccoli Ring, I'm bringing you a similar recipe this week. This, again, is from Pampered Chef.

Beef Taco Ring

What you will need:
1 tube refrigerated croissants (recipe calls for 2, but I just use one to save on fat and calories)
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef (I use 95% lean)
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 3/4 cups shredded cheese
2 tbsp water
1 egg white
Favorite taco toppings (we use lettuce, tomato, sour cream, French Dressing)

What you will do:
1.Arrange croissant dough in circular design on baking sheet (I use Pampered Chef Large Round Stone)


2. Brown hamburger (and drain), then add taco seasoning, 1 1/2 cups of cheese, and water. Mix well in bowl.


3. Scoop filling over croissant dough.....finish desired shape. Brush with egg white and sprinkle on remaining cheese.


4. Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Serve with toppings.


**Is your household into March Madness like ours is?? Thought you'd enjoy this picture. Brandon is helping Myah and Maysen fill out their bracket. Two rounds were chosen by selected their favorite mascot and the other two were selected by the team's colors. At the end of the first day of the tournament, M&M's bracket let Brandon's pool, which is really hilarious because B spent hours (no exaggerating here!) researching for his bracket. "They don't call it March Madness for nothing!"
