Easy Taco Bake

This recipe was great. I did make a few additions. I pan fried whole kernel corn with onions and peppers. I also added a drained can of rotel. It turned out great.

Super yummy, and very easy to make! My family really liked it. Per the recommendations of other reviewers, I baked one can of the crescent dough in a layer in the bottom of the baking dish until lightly browned. I then added the other ingredients and top layer of dough, which I then cooked for 10 minutes. I added the cheese and cooked for another 5 to melt it. This all turned out really well. We served it with some sour cream and salsa.

This taco bake recipe was a huge hit with my family! However, I did make some changes and gave it 4 stars only because it was unclear to me how to use the crescent dough according to the recipe. First of all, I used an 11" x 7" Pyrex casserole dish and ground turkey instead of ground beef making it a little healthier. I used the first roll of crescent dough on the bottom of of the casserole dish and baked it first until golden brown (11 mins) at the advice of another reviewer. After removing from the oven, spread the refried beans over the cooked dough, topped with the ground turkey mixture (I also added half a jar of salsa to the ground turkey mixture), topped with some Mexican blend shredded cheese, topped with the other can of crescent dough and baked until golden brown on top. I topped with additional shredded cheese and put back in oven just until melted. Served with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes and sour cream! My husband and son will lever eat ordinary tacos again! Thanks for this easy tasty taco bake recipe!!
