PIZZA!

I can't recall where in the blogosphere I saw this concept recently, but it sounded like fun to me. I picked up a couple of packages of pizza dough from Whole Foods (though you can certainly use homemade), separated them into six smaller balls of dough, and let them rest on the counter for a little while. Then I heated up my Belgian waffle maker, pulled the dough balls into rough squares to fit the waffle maker, and cooked them, easy peasy. After that I topped them with some of my favorite things (pizza sauce, mozzarella, mushrooms, peppers, marinated artichoke hearts, fresh basil, and Parmesan) and threw them under the broiler briefly to melt the cheeses.

I would definitely suggest easting these right away because the toppings will make the top of the waffle base a bit soggy. I also think this would be a fun dinner to make with kids if you have 'em. Then again, I don't have kids so what do I know?

I any case, I'm always in favor of playing with your food.

NO. WAY.

I have pizza dough in my fridge. Right now. As we speak.

Can I make this in a regular in my regular (not Belgian) waffle maker?
