Recipe Summary Kraut Bierocks
These meat-and-cabbage-mixture filled sweet rolls make a great main dish, and are also great as a snack. They reheat well, so leftovers are also great! Sauerkraut can be used in place of the cabbage for more of a 'kraut flavor'.Ingredients | Recipes For Minced Beef Pie
