Taco Puffs

This is the second meal of the week!  I got these out of the new cookbook my boyfriend bought for me for Christmas!  I love all things that have to do with tacos so I wanted to try these ASAP!  I got home a bit later from work today so I decided we would have these as they are relatively quick to make!  They turned out to be very quick and easy to make!  After they were in the oven they were done in no time!  I will definitely be making these again!

Taco Puffs

Yield: 8 servings

1 lb. ground beef
1/2 Cup chopped onion
1 envelope taco seasoning
2 tubes (16.3 oz each) large refrigerated flaky biscuits
2 Cups (8oz) shredded cheddar cheese

1.  In a large skillet, cook the beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.  Add the taco seasoning and prepare according to package directions. Cool slightly.
2.  Flatten half of the biscuits into 4-inch circles; place in greased 15-in x 10-in x 1-in backing pans.  Soon 1/4 Cup meat mixture onto each; sprinkle with 1/4 Cup shredded cheese.  Flatten the remaining biscuits; place on top and pinch edges to seal tightly.  Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown. 

There turned out delicious!!!  The taste of the biscuit with the taco meat and cheese was awesome!  I would recommend these to everybody! My boyfriend liked to dip his in salsa.  I served these with a taco rice mixture I like to make.  It includes white rice, the leftover taco meat and onion from the taco puffs, cheddar cheese and salsa!  This was a great side dish to have with these.  These were fun and easy to make and I will make them again with different filling too!  Enjoy!
