This is seriously one of my favorite dinners to make. We LOVE this one. It's fast and easy, it's yummy, and the kids don't complain! They like it, too. :-) One other thing is it is great if you are watching what you eat. You can eat this, feel good about what you're eating and still feel good in your tummy, too.
*1 lb ground beef (I use ground turkey. Better for calories, and you can't tell the diff.)
*1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
*1/2 cup water
*1 envelope taco seasoning
*2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls (I only used one here, and it was still great. Also, you can now get the Pillsbury crescent creations that are a sheet of crescent dough that does not have the perforations for the rolls.)
*1 cup (8 ounces) reduced-fat sour cream
*1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar
*4 ounces baked nacho cheese Doritos (about 2 cups), crushed
*Shredded lettuce
*Chopped tomatoes
*Sliced olives
*Chopped green onion
*Chopped red or yellow bell pepper
*Whatever else you like on tacos/burritos :-)
1. In a large skillet, cook beef or turkey. Drain, if necessary. Add beans, water, and taco seasoning; mash slightly. Cook and stir for a few minutes. Set aside.
2. Unroll crescent dough and press onto bottom and up sides of a 13x9 dish coated with cooking spray; seal seams and perforations if necessary. Spoon beef/turkey mixture over dough. Spread sour cream over beef mixture; sprinkle with cheese and chips.
3. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees for 18-22 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, etc. Serve immediately.
