Taco Pizza Recipe

-
I’m always on the lookout for simple recipes that my family will enjoy, especially when it comes to dinner. I love to cook but there are many days when I don’t have an hour+ to prepare a meal.

With summer on the horizon and lots of family fun planned, I’ve been searching for quick and easy family dinners.

An easy family dinner (you can even make it the night before) or a tasty appetizer. Kids love this recipe and the cream cheese/sour cream “sauce” and spicy taco flavor are a hit with adults too.

 Yield: 
serves 6

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tubes (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (8 oz) sour cream
  • 1 pound ground beef or ground turkey
  • 1 envelope taco seasoning mix
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and layout on the ungreased cookie sheet. Pinch the perforations together to seal. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Use a whisk to remove any lumps. Spread over the cooled crust. (I let my crust cool for around 20 minutes.) Chill in the refrigerator.
  4. Brown the ground beef and drain. Add taco seasoning packet and water, according to package directions. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Sprinkle the ground beef evenly over the cream cheese layer. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese.
  6. Cut into serving-size pieces and serve immediately or refrigerate.

The BEST Basic Pancake Recipe

-
Image
For years, I used a box mix to make pancakes. It was easy — just add water (and maybe an egg, depending on the fanciness of the mix) and pour the batter on the griddle. Then the internet came along and showed me that I could make pancakes from scratch and at a fraction of the cost of a mix. And, surprise! The pancakes actually taste better. First, we must master the basic pancake. And while whipping up a batch takes no time at all, there are some rules to pancake creation to make sure your pancakes turn out fluffy and delicious every time: Ingredients 2 c. all purpose flour 1 T. baking powder 3 T. white sugar 1/2 t. salt 2 eggs 1-1/2 c. milk 2 t. vanilla 1 T. butter, vegetable oil or coconut oil Instructions: Preheat a griddle. If you’re using an electric griddle, preheat to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl add flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Mix well. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add eggs, milk and vanilla. Stir to combine. Remember,
