Delicious flatbread taco's!!!
This is her recipe:
1 cup sour cream
2 tsp. ranch salad dressing mix
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
1 can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 envelope taco seasoning
1 Tbsp. hot pepper sauce
1 tube(16.3 oz.) large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
Optional toppings: shredded cheese, lettuce, sliced olives
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, dressing mix and lemon juice; chill until serving.
In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add beans, tomatoes, taco seasoning and pepper sauce; heat through.
Meanwhile, roll out biscuits into a 6 inch circle. In a small non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook each for 30-60 seconds on each side or until golden brown; keep warm.
To serve, spread each flatbread with ranch sour cream; top each with meat mixture and sprinkle on toppings.
The only thing that I changed was I didn't add the beans or hot sauce because the first time I try recipes I try and make them pretty bland for little kids! They are very filling and the biscuits are soooooooo yummy. I had a hard time rolling them out without sticking to stuff so I just flattened them with my hands and fingers. Very easy and oh so very good!!
She suggested that you make the stuff ahead of time and keep the meat warm in a crock pot, put the sauce in a squirt bottle and have the toppings already chopped up for a party. I think I will try this next party!

Fall baking is in the air!!!
Then I just made a banana bread because that same child insisted that I NOT throw out the 2 rotting bananas that were sitting on the counter. So while he was at school I slaved for him and made him his bread. Which I have to say he has only eaten one time, ugh! Later that night I had to do something with the huge apples that were glaring at me so I baked an apple crisp. YUMMY! See it was so good that it didn't last long enough to take any pictures. So you will just have to use your imagination!!
Happy baking people!!
