    My mother and grandmother made these and they were always a treat to have. Haven't had them for many years but will try this recipe. I should add that we are of German decent and lived in Nebraska.

    Excellent recipe I first tried runzas when my husband moved us to Nebraska during the ethanol plant boom, I have never seen them anywhere else. I assume they must be a German food.

    Fixed these tonight! They were great! I did end up with a bunch of extra dough so I fixed them as flat bread. They taste great and were easy to fix. Great recipe, thank you!

    Oh my goodness, now you've brought back memories for me! I'm a MN girl, but my husband chose a travelling job early in our marriage and we moved all over the midwest. When we lived in Fremont, NE, there was a chain called "Runza's" - I had never heard of such a thing. It only took one bite to HOOK me, and I've never had them again since we left NE. NOW I can make my own - how wonderful! Thank you so much for reminding me of these tasty little "pockets" of delicious-ness!

    I have made these for years. The family doesn't like the cabbage part so I use cheese instead for them and add saurkraut in mine.
