Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix (or 2 Tbsp homemade taco seasoning)
- ½ cup water
- 1 can (8 oz / 250 g) Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- ½ cup diced tomatoes

Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and onion until browned (about 6–8 minutes). Drain excess grease. Stir in taco seasoning and water, and simmer for 3–4 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.

Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake for 15–18 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
