Runza Casserole – You could say there are two types of people in this world – people who know and love Runza and people who haven’t yet had one. In case you’re one of the latter, I’ll give you a little explanation – a Runza is a bread pocket that’s stuffed with beef, cabbage or sauerkraut, and onions. Think savory, filling, beefy hot pocket, but even better.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 pkgs refrigerated crescent rolls (do not separate rolls)
  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups Mozzarella cheese, grated
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

How To Make Runza Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  2. Unroll one tube of crescent rolls but do not separate, and place sheet in bottom of prepared baking dish. Bake 5 minutes.
  3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, season ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Drain fat as needed and push meat to outer edges of skillet.
  4. Add butter to center of skillet. Once melted, add onions, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring for 2 minutes.
  5. Add cabbage and let cook down until wilted, about 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Spread mixture over baked crescent rolls. Top with mozzarella and remaining sheet of crescent roll dough.
  7. Bake until top is golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
