Runzas


Buy the frozen bread dough (mine came 3 loaves to a bag), and set out all 3 loaves overnight, or all day to rise.-Brown 2-3 lbs. of ground beef, along w/ 1 onion. Season to taste. Drain and reserve grease.-Chop 1/2 to 3/4 head green cabbage (depending on how much you like cabbage!) and throw in a pot. Dump grease over top, cover, and simmer until cabbage is translucent. Combine w/ beef.-With a little flour, knead bread a little, and then grab fist sized portions, roll out, and fill with beef / cabbage mixture. Fold the dough into the middle of the runza, and pinch together. Place on baking pan, seam side down, brush melted butter on top, and bake at 350 until golden brown. About 30 minutes. Makes about 12 runzas.***Also, I think they are 50 times better w/ a slice of American cheese in the middle. Makes it sooooo good!! Serve w/ ketchup!***
