Taco Biscuits

Now, I love tacos.  But one thing I hate is how it seems like I can't eat them without shattering the shell and getting taco fixin's all over the place.  So....taco biscuits.

Great for food to go or parties since the cheese holds the toppings on.

Also I like biscuits.

Ingredients:

1 can of refrigerated biscuits (doesn't really matter what type as long as you like them)
1 lb ground beef
1 package taco seasoning and whatever it calls for to mix with (usually 3/4 c water)
1 cup cheddar cheese
Taco fixin's

Directions:

Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the biscuit package.  Brown ground beef and fix with taco seasoning.

Open up your biscuits, divide them out, and flatten each one into a wide circle.  Squish them into the bottom and sides of a non-stick muffin tin (no need to grease), spreading as far up the sides as you can.  The dough will rise as it bakes.

Bake for 5 minutes, then pull out and squish in the middle of the dough (it will have started to puff up.  Fill the centers with taco filling and any other fixin's you want to bake (usually jalapenos, tomatoes, and other things that cook well) and top with cheese.  Bake an additional 10 minutes.

Run a knife around the edge of the biscuits to loosen and turn out onto your serving dish.  Top with anything else you'd like!
