Bite-Size Taco Turnovers

1/2 lb. ground beef

1/4 C. taco sauce

2 tsp. chili powder

1/4 tsp. onion powder

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

1 10-ounce package refrigerated pizza dough

1/4 C. shredded American cheese or cheddar cheese

1 egg

1 tsp. water

For filling, cook ground beef in a small skillet until brown. Drain off fat. Stir in taco sauce, chili powder, onion powder and garlic powder. Set aside. Unroll pizza dough. Roll dough into a 14×10-1/2-inch rectangle. Cut into twelve 3-1/2-inch squares. Divide filling among dough squares. Sprinkle with cheese. Brush edges with water. Lift one corner of each square and stretch dough to the opposite corner, making a triangle. Press edges well with a fork to seal.  Arrange on a greased baking sheet. Prick with fork. Combine egg and the 1 tsp. water; brush onto turnovers. Bake in a 425 degree F oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
