BEEF TACO HOT POCKET RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium -high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink; drain. Add taco seasoning mix and water. Cook 1 to 2 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly; stir in salsa. Remove from heat; cool slightly. Stir in 1/2 cup cheese.
• Unroll dough; separate into 4 (6x4-inch) rectangles. Place dough rectangle on ungreased cookie sheet; firmly press perforations to seal. Top short side of rectangle half with about 1/3 cup filling.
• Fold dough from top over filling; firmly press edges with fork to seal. With fork, prick top of each to allow steam to escape. Repeat for remaining dough and filling.
• Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; remove from cookie sheet. Serve with traditional taco toppings (lettuce, cheese and tomatoes).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cook and stir beef in a large skillet until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain excess grease. Stir in water and taco seasoning mix. Cover and keep at a simmer over low heat.
• Unroll crescent dough triangles onto the prepared baking sheet. Cut each triangle in half. Top dough triangles with pepper Jack cheese slices. Divide beef mixture evenly over cheese; top with tomato and cilantro. Fold up dough to enclose filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes.
