I love it when my sister-in-law makes homemade runzas. They taste so awesome, she does need to make them more often though (hint, hint). She is also one of those cooks that just cooks. Me, I need a recipe to follow, so she wrote it out for me so I could make runzas on my own too.
She makes her own dough some of the times when she makes it too. But I use frozen bread dough when I make runzas. Much quicker and easier.
How To Make:
Ingredients:
- Frozen Bread Dough
- 1/2 pound of ground beef
- 1 chopped onion
- 2 cups chopped cabbage
- 2 tablespoons of butter (to wilt the cabbage)
- Salt and pepper to taste, about 1/2 teaspoon of each
Directions:
- Brown the hamburger and onions in a big enough pan that you can add the cabbage to it later.
- Wilt your cabbage in the butter.
- Add the cabbage to the beef as well as the salt and pepper. Stir.
- Roll your dough very thin and cut into 6-7 inch squares.
- Place about 3 tablespoons of your meat mixture onto the center of each square. Bring the corners of the dough to the center and pinch the edges together.
- Place each runza with the smooth side up on a greased cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
