Where do I find crescent roll dough?

It's waiting for you in the refrigerated section with the cookie dough and the biscuit dough! And yes, you can use the regular or the low-fat kind.

That all depends on the amount of taco seasoning and the heat of the salsa that you use. If you are a spice wimp like me, cut down a little on the taco seasoning and use mild salsa. If you are a spice champ like my sister, use a little more seasoning and the spicy salsa!

Can these be made ahead of time?

You can make the filling ahead of time, but I highly recommend filling and baking them right before you serve them so they don't get soggy.
