What is a Taco Braid?

A Taco Braid is a dish that takes all the ingredients of a classic taco and wraps them in a buttery, flaky dough. It’s essentially a taco filling (usually seasoned beef, cheese, and some veggies) arranged in the center of a dough sheet, with the edges of the dough sliced and braided over the filling. The result is a golden, crispy exterior with a savory, cheesy filling inside—perfect for dipping in sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.

What makes it even better is how easy it is to assemble. In just a few simple steps, you can have a show-stopping meal that will impress both in looks and taste.

Ingredients:

For the Taco Braid, you’ll need the following:

• 1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey, chicken, or vegetarian crumbles)
• 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade taco seasoning)
• 1/2 cup salsa (mild, medium, or hot, depending on your preference)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a blend of Mexican cheeses)
• 1/2 cup black beans (optional, for extra texture and flavor)
• 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough (or puff pastry for a flakier texture)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing the braid)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)
• Sour cream, guacamole, and salsa (for dipping)
