While meatballs are cooking preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Place a piece of parchment paper on your pizza pan or grease it. Arrange the crescent rolls in a circular pattern, with the wide edges overlapping and the pointy ends facing out. It should look like a wreath.

Fold the pointed end of the crescent roll over the meatball and tuck it under the wide end of the crescent roll. Press it to hold in place if necessary. It is okay if the meatball is showing through, it should be.

Continue folding over the pointed edges as you make your way around the circle.

Transfer your meatball taco ring to a serving platter. If you used parchment paper then the meatball taco ring will simply slide right off the pizza pan and onto the platter.
