Taco Crescent Bake

Well, it's already Friday evening and I haven't posted yet, sorry!
I enjoyed the day with my husband; nothing crazy just an errand filled day.
I have been wanting to share with you this recipe that I made about a month ago.
I need to make it again!
I knew I wanted to make something 'taco' 
and I also wanted to use up some extra ingredients on hand from the holidays.
I love taco pie, lasagna, and regular tacos.
How abut Tacos on garlic crescent rolls?
Oh yes.
So good!
I'm calling it,
Taco Fave

1 small cooking onion chopped
1 can garlic {or plain} crescent rolls
