This recipe is by far the most popular post on my other blog Two Maids a Milking. It was originally a post from my sister-in-law so I decided to remake and photograph it for all of you!

Taco Bake

This recipe is perfect because it can be customized based on your families preferences. Ground turkey can be substituted for the ground beef, you can use low fat sour cream and cheese to lighten it up and can decrease the amount of chips for the top or use tortilla chips instead. You can also add salsa or substitute the can of tomatoes for a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies (Rotel) to kick up the amount of spice and easily add a layer or refried beans or black beans.

How To Make Taco Bake With Crescent Rolls and Doritos

  • Cook hamburger in medium skillet over medium heat until cooked through, drain.
  • Add taco seasoning, tomato sauce, water, and diced tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes.
