Taco Empandas/Melts

I think that I could make Mexican or Italian dishes every night of the week, but then I would really be having to workout hard in the gym. There are some nights that I don't feel like doing much in the kitchen so I need something quick, but also something that my almost 2 year old will eat.

Have you ever looked Pillsbury recipes? I never have until recently, which is probably a mistake because it's bread and carbs.

 

Ingredients:

1 can Pillsbury biscuits

1 lb. ground beef

taco seasoning packet

1/2 cup salsa

shredded cheese

 

What To Do:

• Preheat oven to 375F
• In a skillet, start cooking hamburger meat
• Add in taco seasoning, water, and 1/2 cup salsa before hamburger meat is fully cooked
• Mix and cook until mixture is thickened
• Press each biscuit flat into 6" rounds
• Spoon 1/3 of mixture onto the biscuit
• Top with shredded cheese
• Fold 1 side over to make a half
• Press to seal with either your fingers or with a fork
• Place on a greased cookie sheet
• Bake for 9-14 minutes or until golden brown
• Serve with any dipping sauce you like
