- 1 1⁄4 lbs lean ground beef

- 1⁄2 teaspoon southwest spicy seasoning (I like a spicy version)
- 2 (8 ounce) cans crescent roll dough, tubes
- 2 (4 ounce) cans whole green chilies, cut so there are 6 large strips total (save rest for another use)

- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, minced, garnish (optional)
directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Brown beef with garlic, salt, pepper,and some southwest seasoning to taste and brown for approximately 9 minutes or until cooked through; drain fat.
- Unroll first package of crescent rolls, pressing together seams.
- Separate into 6 individual squares (do not separate into triangles) and place onto a lightly greased baking sheet, leaving about an inch between each square.
- Lay one chile on each of the crescent roll squares, cut sides up.
- Top each chile with some of the meat mixture, some cheese, a spoonful of salsa, and some chopped onions.
- Open the second pack of crescent rolls and make another 6 sqaures as before, then place a square piece over each of the wraps, no need to seal edges.
- Top each wrap with another sprinkling of cheese.
- Bake for 13 minutes or until the top has melted and is just slightly golden brown (check early a different brands of crescent rolls may cook a bit faster or slower). Garnish with sour cream, scallions, cilantro, olives, more raw onions, and more salsa as desired.
