Taco Braid


I had a little get together recently and made a couple braids with this recipe! 
They were quick and easy so I thought I would share. 

OOPS...I forgot the cheese...
The recipe was for a pizza braid but I made the taco and dessert braids
PIZZA BRAID
2 Pkgs of Crescent Roll Dough or 1 Pkge of Pizza Dough
Mozzarella cheese
Pizza sauce
Pepperoni or other meats
Mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, olives, red pepper, etc

Lay dough out on tray with wide part of triangles on bottom of tray. Allow tips to hang over edges. If using pizza dough, spread evenly on tray.
Spread pizza sauce on dough
Sprinkle with cheese
Add meats and other toppings
Fold triangle tips of dough over dish/toppings
Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes or as directed for dough

VARIATION:
TACO BRAID- do the same with the crescent roll dough 

but put on a mixture of cooked hamburger meat and 1 can of refried beans.

Add onions, olives, etc.. Cook and then add cheese on top and melt,

Serve with salsa and sour cream...
Look at that cute Simply Summer Hospitality tray! You can get one free as a hostess booking gift when you book a party with me!

DESSERT DELIGHT- Do the same as above but spread on the pastry dough softened cream cheese. Then add fruit filling of choice, canned or fresh. Try cherries, peaches, apples, jams or jellies. Flip the triangle edges over the filling. Makes a DELICIOUS and beautiful Dessert.
