Tips & Techniques

  • Doughboy Tip:

    If you're watching fat grams, use reduced-fat sour cream or reduced-fat or fat-free plain yogurt instead of regular sour cream. To complete the menu, add a crisp green salad of romaine lettuce topped with fresh orange slices drizzled with your favorite reduced-fat dressing.

  • 2/3  cup water

  • 1  can (16.3 oz) Pillsbury® Grands!® refrigerated biscuits (any variety)

Kids and hubby loved this! Served with sour cream and homemade salsa on top. Hubby went for thirds after dinner was over. Will definately make again.

Very easy to make. Family and grandchildren did not like any of theirs at all. No one ate a complete taco melt. They requested I definitely bring this again.

I made them the other night for dinner, layering some refried beans in with the meat and cheese. Had sour cream on the side for dipping...delicious! Will definitely be making them again.
