Homemade Hot Pockets

If you enjoy Hot Pockets, try making your own. Purchase Pillsbury Grands biscuits and roll each biscuit flat. Put your favorite fillings on one side and fold the other side over. Seal tightly around the edges. Use the prongs of a fork to seal them better. Bake following the directions on the side of the can. Let them cool then flash freeze by keeping the "pockets" on the cookie sheet and placing it in the freezer. When frozen, place them in a freezer container or freezer bag until ready to use. Flash freezing them will keep them from sticking together in the freezer.

Some suggested fillings are:

Bits of ham and cheddar

Small cooked meatballs and spaghetti sauce

Cooked chicken pieces, salsa and cheddar

Go to the freezer section of your favorite store and collect more ideas.

Frozen bread dough works well also, and you don't have that "canned biscuit" look, although I do use them as well. We like a mixture of broccoli, mozzerella, roasted red peppers and garlic. Pizza fillings are tasty too.

Donna, if you are not on my From Freezer to Oven group, could you join and post some of your recipes. I may be wrong, but I am thinking you have a few once a month cooking recipes you could share

We make Pizza Pocket sandwiches with a sandwich maker. Just butter two slices of bread on the outside, spread some pizza sauce, shredded cheese (or a cheese slice, too), and pepperoni on 1 slice. Place in a sandwich maker, and viola! Nummy!

You could probably do it with other stuff, but I love the pizza sandwiches. :)

What a good recipe with follow-up ideas. I will have to try this with my wheat dough to make them even more healthy.
