Piroshki Burgers....oh Yeah!! image

These are delicious and different, and they actually freeze really well for an easy meal later. When freezing these, I freeze them after they've already been baked and cooled, then I just pop them in the microwave for a couple of minutes until reheated. You could also try other fillings, I like to also add a couple of shakes of Italian seasoning to the filling while cooking. They are a favorite in my house, I hope you like them too.
