Need a Quick Appitizer? Fix These!
I use to think everything needed to be make from scratch, including my dough for pizza. I have bought several loaves of frozen dough and you know what?
They were totally fine!
I had to let them set out for a few hours but seriously, when you make bread from scratch it is a long process as well.
Having a package of dough in the freezer is great to add to your staple list.
Taco Pizza Rolls
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- 1 can Pillsbury™ refrigerated pizza crust
- 2 tablespoons Old El Paso™ taco seasoning mix (from 1-oz package)
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, sour cream, onion, and guacamole
- Taco Seasoning Mix
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F and lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a medium skillet, cook and brown beef until no longer pink. Drain.
- Add taco seasoning and water and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Set aside and cool slightly before using.
- Take pizza dough out of its package and unroll it onto a flat surface. Slightly roll or press the pizza dough out into a rectangle.
- Add the taco meat evenly on top of the pizza dough.
- Sprinkle the cheese evenly on top.
- Starting with the long edge of the pizza dough, roll dough tightly up into a roll.
- Using a serrated knife, make about 1-inch slices along the roll, making about 18 rolls.
- Place rolls on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until tops are golden brown
- Serve immediately and top with desired toppings.
These rolls are great for a snack or if you have several can even serve as lunch. The greatest thing is that this is the kind of food that you could consider finger food. What a win!
