RUNZA (THINK CHEESEBURGER)

Steps:

• 1. Brown ground beef. Drain.
• 2. Saute onion & pepper and add to beef.
• 3. Unroll cresecent rolls. Place beef inside cresecent rolls. You can be creative in how you roll them. You can place beef inside a cresecent roll and roll it up how you would normally roll a cresecent roll or you may choose to shape them in a rectangle, or shape like a real Runza. I shape them into a rectangle using about four of the triangles. Two on the top, two on the bottom.
• 4. The cheese can be added on the inside or the outside. I prefer to put it on top on the beef before rolling. If you want to put it on the outside, just add cheese on top with five minutes left in baking time.
• 5. Bake according to your crescent roll directions.
• 6. Serve with Ketchup & Mustard!

SAVORY RUNZAS

Steps:

• Place 1 3/4 cups flour into a bowl. Stir in sugar, yeast, and salt.
• Combine milk, water, and shortening in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high until warm (120 to 130 degrees F/50 to 55 degrees C), 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour heated milk into the flour mixture. Add eggs and beat at low speed for 30 seconds. Switch to high speed and beat for 3 minutes. Stir in the remaining flour. Knead until smooth, about 3 minutes. Cover the bowl with waxed paper and a towel; let rest for 20 minutes.
• Cook ground beef and onion in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until beef is browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
• At the same time, melt butter in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Add cabbage to beef mixture with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large baking sheet.
• Roll dough on a lightly floured surface until very thin. Cut into 6 squares or rectangles, whichever you prefer. Place 3 tablespoons beef filling in the center of each shape. Bring corners together, pinch edges to seal, and place right-side up onto the prepared baking sheet. Let rise until an indentation remains when lightly pressed with a finger, 40 to 60 minutes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until dough is done and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
