Creating the Easy Taco Ring is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook the Meat: In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
3. Add Seasoning: Stir in the taco seasoning and follow package instructions, usually adding water and simmering for a few minutes.
4. Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circle on a baking sheet, overlapping the ends slightly.
5. Fill the Dough: Spoon the seasoned meat mixture onto the widest part of each triangle. Top with shredded cheese.
6. Fold and Seal: Fold the pointed ends of the triangles over the filling and tuck them under the base to create a ring shape.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
8. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
9. Garnish: Add diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce on top, if desired.
10. Serve with Sides: Serve with sour cream and salsa on the side for dipping.

Following these easy steps will ensure that your Easy Taco Ring turns out perfectly every time!
