Crescent roll taco ring *yum*

I found a pintrest recipe and tweeted it a bit to fit our tastes! But I decided to share!

1 pound hamburger
1/2 green pepper (chopped)
1/2 onion (chopped)
2 jalapenos  (chopped)
1 tbspn minced garlic
1-2 cans crescent rolls
1-2 cups shredded cheese
1/2-1 can black beans
Taco seasoning

I browned up the hamburger and added the peppers,garlic, onion, taco season and beans and let that simmer for a bit!



Then I opened the crescent rolls and placed them into a circle on my cookie sheet (the actual recipe suggested 2 cans of rolls but i only had one!)



Next place your meat mixture in the ring and cover with lots of tasty cheese!



Then fold the crescent roll edge up over to the middle of the pan (to form a ring)


Bake at 350 until golden brown and cheese is all melty!



Serve with your families favorites
Examples:
Lettuce, sour cream, salsa or hot sauce, Mexican rice and beans, tortilla chips...


Enjoy and thanks for reading!!

Picture Frame Fall Wreath

Today i'm posting about a project that is a mixture of a pintrest idea and my own creative twist!

First i bought a really ugly framed picture from my local thrift store for $1.50 (bought it for the frame didn't really matter what the picture was)

Then I took the back off along with the glass and cheezy art.


Next i took some fall greenery laying around and wrapped that around the frame!


(Notice i framed some of my mom's really cute cloth pumpkins ;) )

And my mom donated a little sign to put in the middle. And i just hung it on standard over the door hook/ wreath hanger! So to sum up this post this was a cheap, easy project that looks pretty good if i do say so myself!



Thanks for reading!!!
