We live in small town South Dakota. We can’t afford to fly everywhere in the world with our family. However, it is still important to us to bring culture to our family. One of the ways we do that is to Travel Around the World without leaving our house.

Today in honor of Cinco de Mayo we will be traveling to Mexico. Here is a favorite recipe for our family. We love tacos, but sometimes it is fun to make them with a twist.

Start with 2 packages of Crescent Rolls

Arrange them in a circle, overlapping the rolls.

Set aside and brown a pound and a half of hamburger.

Remove from heat and drain grease. Add Taco Seasoning and 2 T. of Water. Mix Well. Add 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese. Mix together.

Add one scoop of taco mixture on each crescent roll.

Fold over each roll to cover the meat.

Brush rolls with 1 slightly beaten egg white. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

Place Taco Ring in the oven at 375 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

We like to eat them with Salsa and Sour Cream. Yummy! Add some spanish rice and this is a perfect Cinco de Mayo meal.

  • 2 pkg. Crescent Rolls
