Ingredients
- 1 can (8-ounce) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 0.5 pound Ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon Taco seasoning
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.75 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional for garnish)
- 8 pieces Jalapeño slices (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard muffin tin or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it onto a clean surface. Separate the dough into 8 triangles.
Step 3
Press each triangle of dough into a muffin tin cup, pushing the dough up the sides to create a cup shape. Ensure there are no gaps.
Step 4
In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef or ground turkey until browned and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Step 5
Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until well combined and slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Step 6
To assemble the cups, spoon a small amount of seasoned meat into each crescent dough cup. Add a spoonful of black beans and diced tomatoes on top of the meat.
Step 7
Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese onto each cup.
Step 8
Bake the crescent nacho cups in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and fully baked.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes before carefully removing the cups from the muffin tin.
Step 10
Top each cup with a dollop of sour cream and garnish with chopped cilantro and/or a jalapeño slice if desired.
Step 11
Serve warm and enjoy these bite-sized nacho-inspired treats!
