Easy Fry Bread

1 (16 ounce) package (12) frozen dinner rolls, thawed
Cooking oil for shallow-fat frying
Indian taco meat sauce or cinnamon-sugar topping (see recipes below)

On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a 6-inch circle.

In a heavy skillet, heat about 1 inch of cooking oil over medium-high heat to 365 degrees F.

Fry dough circles, one or two at a time, in hot oil about 1 minute or until bread circles are golden brown, turning once.

Remove with tongs and drain on paper towels. Keep warm in a 300 degree F oven while frying remaining circles.

To serve, top with Indian Taco Meat Sauce or Cinnamon-Sugar Topping. Serve immediately.

Indian Taco Meat Sauce: In a large skillet, cook 2 pounds lean ground beef until meat is brown. Drain off fat. Stir in one 16 ounce can refried beans, 1 cup tomato juice, 1 cup water, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 tablespoon taco seasoning or chili seasoning and 1 teaspoon chili powder. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 30 minutes or until desired consistency.

Spoon over warm fry bread. If you like, top with sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded lettuce or chopped tomatoes.

Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Sprinkle over warm fry bread.
