In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, breaking it into crumbles.
Drain any excess grease, then stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked taco meat, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and ranch dressing. Mix until well blended and creamy.
Prepare the Crescent Dough
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the crescent dough and separate it into triangles as marked. Cut each triangle in half to create smaller triangles.
Assemble the Bites
Place about 1 tablespoon of the taco filling in the center of each crescent dough triangle.
Fold the edges of the dough around the filling, pinching to seal and forming a small pouch.
Bake
Arrange the bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Serve
Sprinkle with chopped green onions for garnish and serve warm with sour cream, salsa, or guacamole on the side for dipping.
Pro Tips
Add a kick by mixing in diced jalapeños or hot sauce to the filling.
For a crispier crust, brush the crescent dough with melted butter before baking.
