I got this recipe from Taste of Home's Quick Cooking Annual Recipes 1999. This is a quick and easy recipe that is just plain delicious. They are not the healthiest of dishes, but every once in a while it is a good comfort food to make.

Ingredients

1 lb ground beef
1/2 chopped onion
1 (1 ounce) envelope taco seasoning
2 (17 1/3 ounce) tubes large refrigerated biscuits
8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

In a skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until beef is browned and onion is tender; drain.
Add the taco seasoning and prepare according to package directions. Cool slightly.
Flatten half of the biscuits into 4 inch circles; place in greased 15" x 10" x 1" baking pans.
Spoon 1/4 cup meat mixture onto each cup, top with 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.
Flatten remaining biscuits; place on top and pinch edges to seal tightly.
Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
(Try variations with this. Add a little salsa - drained, add corn, etc. Just make sure to minimize the liquid so not to have a negative effect on the biscuits.).
