Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Let the crescent rolls sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  2. Unroll the crescent rolls and lay them flat on the baking sheet, pressing the seams together to create a solid crust.
  3. Bake the crust for 11 to 13 minutes until golden brown. Allow it to cool for 10 to 15 minutes.
  4. While the crust cools, cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes until browned. Drain any excess fat and stir in the taco seasoning.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, and salsa. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  6. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust, then top with the cooked ground beef, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheese.
  7. Sprinkle shredded lettuce over the top, slice into squares, and serve warm.

Notes

Allow the baked crust to cool before adding toppings to prevent sogginess. Drain excess fat from the beef for a light meal. Ensure cream cheese is softened for easy mixing. Get creative with protein and toppings for a customizable dish.
