These were good but a little messy to make. My husband was skeptical but pleased when he took the first bite. I am so glad I listened to the other reviews and added taco seasoning. I believe it would be bland without it. So....ADD TACO SEASONING! Also I had some of the meat mixture (I used ground turkey) left over so I filled crescents and baked them and they turned out great. I will definitely make these again with taco seasoning and a little more cheese.

Can you freeze these, and if so; what is the best way to re-heat them?

These are super easy to make if you allow the biscuit's to come to room temp. Take the biscuit's out of the tube and place on a sprayed cookie sheet, the same one you plan to bake on. Allow to rest for about 15-20 mins. Flour a rolling or pressing area lightly. Flour your pin or your finger's abit bit. Press/roll biscuit to your desired size. I use a rollin pin as it's quicker; reflouring with each biscuit. Follow recipe insturction's. I make these several different ways. We love this recipe. Have a creative time, ya'll!

Making this today. The only thing that the recipe does not state is that you have to roll out/flatten the Grands in order to fold over. Also instead of a round pan put on a regular cookie pan if making 8 melts.

Love making dinners like this... endless possibilites. Last week it was ham and cheese bolis (as we call them). Those complaining about the time it takes to flatten out the biscut..that is what the kids are for. I have found making boli's is a great way for my 14 year old and I to have time to talk about our day.

Not bad taste. The kids liked it. But it was a a huge pain not a 30 min meal. Put wax paper down to roll out buscuits and rhey still stuck to it. Probably wont make it again. Not worth the trouble

This is the best recipe !! We love it and it's so simple. I follow the recipe , no need to change it up I say. Yes, folding over the biscuits is a tad messy.......but well worth it ! We have it once a month.

I made these with a few variations. 1) I used Quorn Crumbles (faux ground beef because I'm vegetarian. 2) I cooked the ground in taco seasoning. 3) I used 2 Tbsp of cheese per bundle. 4) I put 1 Tbsp of salsa into each bundle. I had a few issues with them. I wasn't able to "press" them out to 6-inch rounds; I had to use a rolling pin, which means I had to flour them, which means they didn't seal well once assembled. So I ended up putting the seal along the top of the bundle and a few did pop open a tiny bit while baking. That said, they were very tasty. I <3 Mexican food and I <3 biscuits, so
