Biscuit Taco Melts

Disclaimer: This recipe is none too easy. Putting the meat and folding the pockets is harder than one might expect. They open up in the oven and can make quite a mess. But let me tell you- they are so delicious, so mouthwateringly, craveable deliciousness that sometimes I get a wild hair and tackle this recipe for the messy goodness. That said- here it is:

1 packet taco seasoning mix
2/3 c. water
1 1/2 c. salsa
1 lb. ground beef (cooked & drained)
1 can refrigerated flaky buttermilk biscuits
1 c. shredded monterrey jack cheese
1 c. sour cream

In saucepan, cook taco seasoning, water and 1/2 c. salsa with beef until thick. Press each biscuit into a 6 in. round, then fill each with taco mix & a pinch of cheese. Fold dough over filling and press to seal. Place on greased cookie sheet and bake 9-14 mins. at 375. Serve with salsa, cheese, and sour cream.
