I've done a few variations since first making these.... cheeseburger, BBQ chicken, pizza, ham & cheese, taco and I even did a spaghetti one. (Ever since I was a kid, I've taken bread, piled my spaghetti on it & folded it in half to make a sandwich!) MAKE-AHEAD TIP: Prepare and cook buns as directed. Cool for 30 minutes; wrap in heavy foil and freeze for up to 1 month. To reheat, leave the frozen buns in foil wrap. Bake in 325°F. oven about 40 minutes or until heated through.

    Meanwhile, prepare the hot roll mix according to package directions. Divide the dough into 24 portions. Roll each portion into a ball. On a lightly floured surface roll or pat each ball into a 3 ½ inch circle.

    For each bun, place about 1 tablespoon of the filling in center of a circle. Moisten edges of dough with water and bring up around filling, pinching the edges together to seal.
