Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into a 9-inch pie pan, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides to form a crust.
Spread the refried beans evenly over the dough crust.
Add the seasoned ground beef on top of the beans, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the beef layer.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Top the pie with chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, and the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Add dollops of sour cream and sprinkle with sliced black olives. Crush the tortilla chips slightly and scatter them on top for extra crunch.
Slice the taco pie into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy!
