Taco Pizza!!

I love finding great recipes on pinterest! Especially when they end up being as good as they sound! My family really enjoys this recipe for taco pizza!  Especially my dear daughter Lindsay. This pan was actually made by her to take to a friend.  

Doesn't it look tasty?

Taco Pizza Serves 12

1 lb. ground beef or turkey
1 envelope taco seasoning mix
2 (8 oz.) cans crescent rolls
1 (16 oz.) can refried beans 
2-3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1/4 cup sliced black olives
4 green onions, chopped

Heat oven to 375 degrees.
Brown ground beef and drain. Add taco seasoning to the ground beef according to the package directions.

Unroll crescent rolls into rectangles. Place in ungreased 11 1/2 inch x 16 1/2 inch jelly roll pan or cookie sheet. Press dough over the bottom and 1/2 inch up sides to form crust.  Bake at 375 oven for 11 to 13 minutes or just until golden brown.

  Carefully spread beans over warm crust creating a thin layer.
Top with cooked beef mixture, sprinkle with cheese followed by tomatoes, black olives and green onion.  Return to oven for 3-6 more minutes until cheese is melted.  Serve immediately.  Makes 12 main dish servings or 48 appetizers.

Strawberry Turnovers-A breakfast Dad and the Kids can make

                                   

Hello! This is a super duper easy recipe and would be perfect for dads and kids (kids will need to be supervised because you will need to use the oven and a sharp knife.) Let me put it this way...by the time the oven was preheated we were ready to put these delicious sweeties in the oven. 

Here we go...

Strawberry Turnovers

1 sheet of puff pastry thawed

1 can pie filling (any flavor but we chose strawberry)

1/3 C of of powdered sugar

1-2 TBS milk

a little vanilla

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place 1 sheet of puff pastry out and cut into 4 squares. Arrange on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Add the filling to one side of the square. Fold over from point to point. Seal the edges with either a fork or your fingers.  Cut a slit in the top or poke it with a fork. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Meanwhile stir the powdered sugar and milk and vanilla adding more milk and sugar until it reaches the consistency you prefer. Once the pastries are cooled drizzle the glaze over the beauties. Enjoy!
