Taco Ring – Pampered Chef (Video)

A classic recipe from Pampered Chef, this deliciously easy Taco Ring is PERFECT for your Superbowl parties, or anytime!!  Many of my in-home party hosts ask me to make this recipe, because it feeds a LOT of people and, of course, it is so tasty!

I used my Large Round Stone, along with our Everything Taco Seasoning for this recipe:

Large Round Stone

Make Tasty Pizza at Home With the Large Round Stone.

It’s great for frozen pizza, coffee cakes, taco rings, pull-apart bread wreaths, and more! The ¾” (2-cm) lip around the edge keeps food and drippings contained, so you can use it to make cookies and brownies. The unglazed interior gives you the light, crispy results our stoneware is known for while the beautiful satin white glazed exterior and easy-to-hold handle design make it the perfect oven-to-table piece.

Everything Taco Seasoning

Flavorful Fiesta

Make meals more flavorful with this one seasoning! And what’s better than tacos? With our Everything Taco Seasoning, you have a sure thing every time. Plus, you can add it to enchiladas, quesadillas, steamed veggies, soups, dips, or anything else you’re making for zesty flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1½ lb (700 g) lean (90%) ground beef
  • 1 pkg (1–1.25 oz/30–35 g) taco seasoning mix
  • 1¾ cups (7 oz/200 g) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 2 tbsp (45 mL) water
  • 2 pkg (8 oz /250 g each) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1   egg white, lightly beaten

 Optional toppings:

  • salsa, shredded lettuce, chopped onion and tomato, sliced olives, and sour cream

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C.

Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat for 10–12 minutes or until it’s no longer pink, breaking beef into crumbles, then drain. Stir in the Everything Taco Seasoning, 1 ½ cups of the cheese, and water.

Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 16 triangles. Arrange the triangles, slightly overlapping, in a circle on a Large Round Stone with the wide ends of the triangles overlapping in the center and points toward the outside. There should be a 5″ (13-cm)-diameter opening in the center of the stone. The narrow triangle points of dough will extend off the edge of the baking stone.

Using a Large Scoop, scoop the filling evenly over the dough in a continuous circle. Bring the points of triangles up over the filling and tuck them under the dough at center to form a ring. (Filling will show.) Brush the top with the egg white. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until it is golden brown. Serve with toppings.

Kielbasa & Honey Mustard Pinwheels – Food Network (Video)

This recipe comes from Maya Ferrante over at the Food Network.  It’s one of the easiest I’ve done, and was immediately devoured by my family as soon as it left the oven!

To bake the pinwheels, I used my Rectangle Stone:

Stone Cookie Sheet

Get ready for the best cookies—soft in the center, crispy but never burned on the bottom! This stone also turns out the best pizza and flatbreads, appetizers, biscuits and scones, roasted vegetables, garlic bread, brunch braids, and so much more. Because the unglazed cooking surface draws moisture away, everything cooks consistently and turns out light and crispy.

Natural Clay Cookware

Our unglazed stoneware is made with our new StoneFusion material making it our strongest and most durable stoneware yet. You can pre-heat, broil, and even put it in the dishwasher. Each piece features a ribbon pattern, so you can easily distinguish from your original unglazed stones. Like all our stones, you can use it to make your favorite baked goods, frozen foods, or reheated leftovers that are just as good or better than day one. And it only gets better with age. A nonstick seasoning will develop as you use it—the darker it looks, the better it cooks!

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • All-purpose flour, for dusting
  • 1/3 cup honey mustard
  • 8 ounces diced kielbasa

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F/205⁰C.

Dice kielbasa, set aside.

Unroll thawed puff pastry onto cutting board dusted with flour. Roll dough to measure a 10 x 15-inch rectangle.

Spread mustard over top of puff pastry all the way to the edges, then add diced kielbasa over the mustard. 

Roll the puff pastry like a jelly roll, starting from the long side.  Pinch the seam closed, then refrigerate or freeze until firm enough to slice (Refrigerate 30 minutes or freeze for 15 minutes).

Once chilled, slice into ½” pinwheels, and place cut side down onto baking stone. 

Bake 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.  Cool 5 minutes.  Serve with more honey mustard on the side, if desired.

That’s it!  I hope that you’ll give this a try, and please leave a comment to let me know what you think about this recipe.  I would love to hear from you. Let’s make great food together!
