Homemade Hot Pockets

I made these for my husband and I to eat during the week when we don't have anything else to eat.  Plus, it means my husband has no excuse to not take his lunch to work and eat fast food, which I am all for! :) We freeze them and take them out as needed.  These are really simple and are great reheated.  I used this dough recipe in my bread machine from Our Best Bites, and then just kind of winged it from there and added whatever ingredients I wanted.

Homemade Hot Pockets

1 1/2 c. warm (105-115 degrees) water
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. yeast
1/2 tsp. salt
3-4 1/2 c. flour(I used half whole wheat, half bread flour)

Add to bread machine in order recommended by manufacturer.  Select dough cycle.  When finished, add filling ingredients to the center of rolled out dough, leaving a gap on all edges.  Wrap up burrito style, making sure to seal edges.  Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes or until tops are golden brown.  Brush with butter or margarine if desired.

Buttery Bread Machine Rolls

I usually don't make anything with only white flour, but my husband requested these, so I decided to go all out and make them completely unhealthy.  I usually make these with margarine and 2 cups of whole wheat flour, and they are delicious either way,  but obviously they're a lot healthier without the butter and white flour!
