Taco Roll-Ups

I made these as a lunch entree for my kiddos. They received rave reviews!

Taco Roll-Ups
From JillAZ at food.com

1 lb. ground beef
1 pkt. (1.5 oz) taco seasoning
2/3 c. water
1 lb. bread dough--defrosted, if frozen or purchased fresh (Winco has it $1.48)
2 c. shredded Cheddar cheese or taco blend

Brown ground beef. Drain fat. Add taco seasoning and water, cooking for 5-10 minutes or until water is absorbed.

Place dough on lightly floured surface. Roll into a 8x20 inch rectangle. Spread beef mixture on the dough, leaving a 1 inch border. Sprinkle with the cheddar cheese.

Roll up the dough, beginning on the long side. Pinch the seams to seal. Use a serrated knife to cut the roll into 1 slices. Place the slices approximately 2 inches aprt on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Place on a wire rack to cool. When completely cooled, place on a cookie sheet in the freezer. When completely frozen, place in a labeled ziptop bag.

To serve, place the desired number of rolls in a container in the lunch bag. Or, heat in the microwave for 45 seconds.
