1 package taco seasoning
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup pimiento-stuffed olives, sliced
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
1-1/2 cups corn chips, crushed, divided
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded lettuce
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped

In a skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add the taco seasoning, water and olives. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
Separate crescent dough into eight triangles and place in a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate with points toward the center. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of pan to form crust; seal perforations. Sprinkle half the corn chips over crust. Spoon beef mixture over chips. Spread sour cream over beef. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese; top with remaining chips.
Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Serve topped with lettuce and tomatoes. Yield: 6 servings.
