Runzas

Any one from Nebraska is well aware of the restaurant chain Runza. Their name is derived from their signature sandwich. A Runza is a meat and veggie filled roll. My mom created this recipe, and I added my own twists to it. Enjoy!

What You Need

Roll Dough (use the recipe under the calzones dough recipe from a couple days ago, or make your own roll dough. You can even use frozen roll dough if that is easier.)
Ground beef
Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper
cabbage (about 1/2-2/3 head thickly shredded, or chopped really thin)
onion (sliced thin)
Mushrooms (also sliced thin)
Cheese (I prefer a sharp cheddar)

Directions

Make bread dough. While dough is rising 2nd time, brown meat. Season with salt and pepper. Once meat is cooked through also season with Worcestershire sauce to taste, (I usually put in around 1/3 -1/2 c). Then add onion and cabbage, and cook till veggies start wilting, then add mushrooms. Cook till veggies are tender then remove from heat. Roll out dough one circle at a time. Top with a small handful of cheese and a large, heaping, spoonful of meat mixture. Close dough around mixture and place seam down on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes, or until bread is golden brown. Serve with french fries and/or veggies.
