Part nacho, and part flatbread, these tasty snacks or appetizers are a great way to use leftover pulled pork, or any tender, cooked pork. Serve with the suggested toppings, or be creative and add your own.

Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.

Original recipe (1X) yields 32 servings

2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
¾ pound cooked pulled pork, or any diced, cooked pork
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL®), drained
3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix
4 ounces crumbled cotija cheese
1 jalapeno pepper, thinly sliced
1 avocado, sliced (Optional)
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or more to taste (Optional)
1 lime, cut into wedges (Optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Cut a 13x18-inch piece of parchment paper; place on a work surface. Unroll crescent roll dough and place on the parchment paper, slightly overlapping the long sides of the two pieces of dough.
Lightly flour a rolling pin; roll over the overlapping dough edges and over the perforations to create one 12x17-inch seamless piece of dough. Carefully lift the parchment paper with dough and fit into a 13x18-inch metal sheet pan.
Sprinkle 1 cup shredded Cheddar evenly over the dough; follow with pulled pork. Scatter drained beans and drained RO-TEL® over pulled pork; sprinkle on green onions, taco seasoning, and remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and the visible edges of the crescent dough are browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
Remove to a wire rack. Sprinkle crumbled cotija cheese over all.
Scatter jalapeño slices, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro over if using.
Cut into 32 squares with a sharp knife or a pizza cutter; place on a warmed serving platter with lime wedges, if using.

Cook's Notes:

Use RO-TEL® Original or Hot, whichever you prefer.

Use hot or mild purchased taco seasoning, or make your own, from one of the recipes on the site.
