Ingredients
Pizza Base
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls For the base.
Filling
- 1 pound ground chicken or beef (Halal-certified) Use your preference of meat.
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix Ensure no pork additives.
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Can substitute with Mexican blend.
Toppings
- 1 cup assorted toppings (diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, sliced jalapeños, or avocado) Customize as per preference.
- to taste sour cream or Greek yogurt For serving.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, brown your ground chicken or beef over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula.
- Once it’s no longer pink, drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the taco seasoning along with water as directed on the package. Allow it to cook for about 5 minutes.
- Unroll the crescent rolls onto a large baking sheet, forming a rectangle. Pinch the seams together to create a solid base.
Assembly and Baking
- Spread the seasoned meat evenly over the crescent roll base, leaving a small border along the edges.
- Top it with shredded cheese and other desired toppings.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Allow it to cool for a couple of minutes, then slice into squares and serve hot.
Notes
For a healthier option, substitute with ground turkey or TVP. Make sure to not overcrowd the skillet to keep the crescent rolls crispy.
