Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 packet Taco seasoning
• 0.25 cup Water
• 1 tube Refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Chopped lettuce
• 1 cup Diced tomatoes
• 0.25 cup Sliced black olives
• 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
• 1 unit Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

Add the taco seasoning and water to the skillet, stirring to combine. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat.

Step 4

Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the pie plate, covering the bottom and sides. Seal any seams to form a solid crust.

Step 5

Spoon the seasoned ground beef mixture evenly over the crescent dough base.

Step 6

Sprinkle 3/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the beef.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crescent crust is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Spread the sour cream evenly over the top of the cooked pie.

Step 10

Garnish the pie with lettuce, tomatoes, black olives, green onions, and the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.

Step 11

Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your Ground Beef Crescent Taco Pie!
