Sausage Hash Brown Breakfast Pocket (Can be Frozen)

By phoenixrises75

Makes 8-10 (depending on how big you cut the squares and how thin you roll the dough) These are great, not only for a brunch crowd, but also as a hearty, easy option before school. You can also make other kinds of hot pockets for dinner or lunch with any sort of filling: pizza, broccoli, BBQ beef, cooked chicken, deli meat and so on. Got this recipe from oneshetwoshe.com.

Ingredients

• 16 oz. sausage roll
• 15 oz. shredded hash browns
• 12 eggs (Optional: reserve 2 whites in a bowl)
• 2 - 11 oz. rolls of French bread dough
• Large pan
• (Optional: Spatter guard to go over pan for less mess.)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Cook up your sausage in a large pan on medium heat. ( I buy a leaner kind, so there is not as much grease. You can also remove the sausage and drain the fat, and return the sausage to the pan for a healthier pocket.)
2. Add half the bag of hash browns and cook until softened, maybe starting to turn golden.
3. Scramble the eggs and pour on top of the hashbrown/sausage mixture. Stir and cook until done.
4. Roll out a tube of french bread into a large rectangle (or something that ever-so-slightly resembles a rectangle) and cut into four squares.
5. Place a heap of the burrito mixture on the dough and wrap it up....long sides first, followed by short sides. (Optional: You can brush the tops with egg whites for a more golden brown look.)
6. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 425 for 12 to 15 minutes or so, until done.

If you don't have a crowd, make them, freeze 'em and micro wave
