From Betty's Soul Food Collection... Good things come in small packages, like these party-pleasin' pizza-flavored foldovers--similar to empanadas, meat-filled pastries popular in Latin America.

Ingredients

• 6 ounces bulk hot pork sausage
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 can pizza sauce (15 ounces)
• 1 box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box
• 1 egg, beaten

Directions

• Heat oven to 425 degrees F. In 8-inch skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pork is no longer pink; drain well. Stir in garlic powder and 1/4 cup of the pizza sauce.
• Remove 1 crust from pouch. On work surface, roll into 13-inch round. With 3-inch round cutter, cut 11 rounds. Repeat with second crust.
• Spoon about 1 teaspoon sausage mixture onto each round. Fold each in half; seal edges with fork. Cut small slit in top of each with sharp knife. Place on ungreased large cookie sheet. Brush each foldover with beaten egg.
• Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat remaining pizza sauce until hot. Serve warm appetizers with warm pizza sauce for dipping.
