Wowlers! (Runzas) image

This is your basic cabbage roll filling, but instead of wrapping in a cabbage leaf, you wrap it up in homemade bread dough. They're great warm or cold. Makes a great substitute for ho-hum sandwiches! We like 'em with spicy mustard spread on top. The recipe was given to me by a neighbor, years ago. I double the recipe so I usually get about 2 dozen filled rolls. Note: if you don't want to fool with homemade dough, hot roll mix works great.

The dough was a little difficult to work with, but the end result was worth it.

These were a little too greasy for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still delicious!

This recipe was a hit with my family! The runzas were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the filling was perfectly seasoned! I will definitely be making these again!
