Cabage Runza's

Cabbage Runza's

submitted by Jenn Mumm

Filling:
1 large head cabbage
2 large onions
2 lbs ground beef
salt & pepper
Shred cabbage & chop onion while meat is browning. Add cabbage and onions to meat and stir. Cover and simmer for 15 min or until tender. Cool

Dough
1 pkg (or cake) yeast
2 cups warm milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
7-8 cups flour (or enough for soft dough)

Soften yeast in liquid and add rest of ingredients. Let rise until double. Punch down and let it rise again. Turn out on board. Divide dough--roll half at a time to about 3/8". Cut into squares 5-6". Place portion of filling in center of squares and bring corners together and pinch openings securely. Turn pinched side onto pan or cookie sheet. Let rise until double. Bake at 375 about 15-20" (or until golden brown).

If you don't have time to make the dough, you can just use frozen bread dough :)
