I Bequeath the Taco Wreath

I started making this dish a couple of years ago to give my pizza stone a little taste variety in its boring life. My pizza stone was very impressed and is always begging me to make this. Its easy to make, it looks hard to accomplish and it tastes awesome! My pizza stone loves me for this because she gets to go to pot luck parties and is always the center of attention when she shows up with the taco wreath. The best part about this is you can change out the ingredients and make it your own. This is another great way to use leftovers. Leftover chicken and rice? Mix it with cheese and salsa and put it inside! Scrambled eggs and potatoes? Put them inside! Leftover meatballs? Yes please... just don't forget the cheese! You got the idea!

1 pound ground beef/or turkey

1 small onion, chopped

1 small bell pepper, chopped

1 package taco seasoning mix

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Two 8-ounce packages crescent rolls

1 head lettuce, shredded

2 tomatoes, cubed

1 small onion, chopped

1 small can sliced black olives

1 cup salsa

Sour cream

Green onions, sliced

Pizza pan or baking stone

Preheat oven to 350F. In skillet brown ground beef and add the onion and bell pepper. When cooked, drain. Add taco seasoning, cheese and 1/4 cup of water, mix well. On a large pizza pan or baking stone arrange crescent triangles with shortest sides toward center, overlapping in wreath shape and leaving a circle in center. Points will overlap edge of pan. Spoon meat filling on widest part of crescent rolls. Pull end points toward center over filling and tuck under base at center, forming a ring. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown.
In the center of the circle arrange lettuce, tomatoes, onion and olives. Garnish with salsa, sour cream and green onions.
