Niece was here last Friday, and she made these for a quick
dinner; *I* probably wouldn't eat them again, but everyone
else (we dinner for 6) loved them. The original recipe came
from the Pillsbury web site:
Grands® Taco Melts
1 package (1.25 oz) Old El Paso® taco seasoning mix
2/3 cup water
1 1/2 cups Old El Paso® Thick 'n Chunky salsa
1 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef, cooked, drained
1 can (16.3 oz) Pillsbury® Grands!® refrigerated biscuits
(any variety)
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese or Mexican cheese blend (4 oz)
1 cup sour cream, if desired
Preheat oven to 375º F. In medium skillet, brown ground beef until no
pink remains; drain. Add taco seasoning mix, water, and 1/2 cup of the
salsa; simmer until thickened. Press each biscuit into 6-inch round.
Fill each with taco mixture and 1 tablespoon cheese. Fold dough over
filling and press to seal. Place on greased cookie sheet. Bake 9 to 14
minutes or until golden brown. Serve with remaining salsa, cheese and
sour cream. Yield: 8 sandwiches.
