Okay, I have a confession to make. Yeah, yeah, I’m all Miss I-Do-This-Whole-Food-Blogging-Thing and I really do love to cook. But I hate, hate, hate (I’m THRICE using the word “hate” here) figuring out what to feed my kids for lunch.
Using a pizza cutter, cut dough into 8 equal portions.
Leaving a little bit of a “margin” on the right and left sides, add toppings with the cheese going on last. 
Stretch the dough out a little to give yourself a bit more dough to work with. Fold the left side over the middle and then the right side over that. Starting at the bottom of the “mummy,” tightly roll the filled dough, stretching it very gently as you go to make sure you’re getting a tight seal. 
Place on a sprayed cookie sheet and repeat with remaining dough. When finished, cover the pan with a clean cloth and preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
When oven has heated, bake pockets for about 15 minutes or until golden brown on top. For shine, you could brush the tops with a bit of egg white mixed with water during the last 5 minutes of baking, or you could rub a little butter on top of the rolls while they’re still hot.
And honestly, these are just as good not-hot as they are straight from the oven, so if you or your honey are looking for something to take to work and eat for lunch but don’t have access to a microwave, these will still be pretty darn good!

FREEZER INSTRUCTIONS:
Bake according to directions and allow to cool. Place in a Ziploc freezer bag, squeezing out all the air. When ready to serve, just pop in the microwave for 2-3 minutes (depending on how fast your microwave cooks).

Mmmm.. we're always looking for variety 🙂 Guess you can't feed 'em popsicles forever.. this is great!
These look good. I'm all about homemade breads and things like that right now!
Oh yum! These look so much better then the real thing!
I want to try these right now! Something my kids would LOVE!
Fun, fun!! My picky 7 year old might actually eat those! I know he would have fun making them. 🙂
mmm. hot pockets without all the grease and salt. 🙂
Love these; they look much better than hot pockets!
Looks like I found lunch for us at work tomorrow!
What a great idea! I also have two very picky kids who about 90% of the time don't eat what I make. I'm excited to give these a try.
Thanks for this great idea! I will be making these soon!
Those look delicious! If they are as good as the pizza bites you posted a while back I will be making them often.
Mmmm… The worst part about hot pockets is the cardboard they call a crust. These sound sooo good!
It is so hard to think of what to make for lunch for the kiddos. Thanks for the great idea!
Jen, I should've been more specific (and thanks for reminding me–I put it in the instructions)! 🙂 Anyway, yeah, just go ahead and bake them and when they're cool, place them in a Ziploc freezer bag and squeeze all the air out. When you're ready to eat them, just pop 'em in the microwave for 2-3 minutes and you're good to go!
how do you freeze them? baked or unbaked?
These look so good, I'm definitely trying these!
These look great! I am always looking for lunch ideas for my little one too.
mmm, definately going to try these.
Look great, I may try them out for lunch today.
What a fun idea for kids lunch and I love that the kids can help make them. Thanks!
These would be perfect for on the go snacks and breakfast. Thanks!
What a great time-saving idea!
These look delish! Thanks for sharing all your ingenious ideas with all us non-creative food folks (like me)!
i am a huge fan of this idea. and if you can make ahead and freeze i love it even more! Yummy!
My husband will LOVE these – yes he's a kid at heart!
I'm going to go make the pizza dough right now. Yum!
Yum! I can't wait to make them!!
Perfect for breakfast on the go!! It happens all to often at our house!
Yummy, I can't wait to try it.
Oh great idea! I actually use a lot of kid recipes for the hubs, since he is a bit picky! He would love this!
I've been making these lately (with normal bread dough) and they have been a lifesaver. My fav adult filling is a southwest chicken. (on my food blog) I need to try with the breadstick dough….cause I know the breadsticks are yum!
