I use the 96% lean ground beef and whole wheat frozen bread dough and those changes with the brands I use bring them down to 5 points per bundle/runza. They freeze really well. To reheat we thaw them in the microwave on defrost and then bake them in a preheated 350 oven for 5-10 minutes.
In the midwest where I grew up these are called Runzas.
CABBAGE BURGER BUNDLES / Runzas
Use frozen bread dough to encase a flavorful meat-cabbage filling for these hearty sandwiches.
Eat them plain or dip or spread them with salsa, catsup, or mustard.
Makes 10 servings
Prep: 25 minutes
Rise: 30 minutes
Bake: 14 minutes
Ingredients
2 16-ounce loaves frozen bread dough, thawed
1 pound ground beef or bulk pork sausage
4 cups shredded cabbage
3/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup boiling water
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter, melted
Directions
1. Divide each loaf of thawed bread dough into 5 equal pieces. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cover and let dough rise in a warm place until nearly doubled in size (about 30 minutes).
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook ground beef or sausage until meat is brown. Drain well.
3. In a large covered saucepan, cook cabbage and onion in the boiling water for 5 to 7 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain thoroughly; return to pan.
4. Add meat, Worcestershire sauce, and salt to cabbage mixture.
5. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece of bread dough to form a 6-inch square. Place a generous 1/3 cup of meat mixture in center of each square of dough. Moisten edges of dough with water. Bring each corner in over center forming a bundle; pinch edges to seal. Place on lightly greased baking sheets. (Cover one sheet with plastic wrap and refrigerate it, while the other bakes.)
6. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 14 to 16 minutes or until golden.
7. Remove from oven and brush with butter. Serve warm. Makes 10 servings.
