Waffle Calzones

A few years back I made Chicken and Waffles for my son's swim team and it was a huge hit. That got me thinking about all of the "sandwich" possibilities for waffles. Here is a simple but very delicious take on the "calzone". I think you'll love it!

• 1 3/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
• 1 box 8 plain frozen waffles defrosted

SUGGESTED TOPPINGS

• Tomato slices
• Red pepper slices
• Pepperoni slices
• Crumbled bacon
• A few dollops of ricotta cheese
• Pesto

Lightly toast the waffles. Lay four waffles down and top with shredded cheese, Parmesan cheese and toppings of your choice. (If using Pesto spread on waffle first). Sprinkle with spices and top with another waffle. This recipe makes four waffle calzone sandwiches.

Heat a flat skillet or waffle pan with just enough olive oil to coat. Brown waffle sandwiches on both sides until cheese is melted and oohey-gooey good!

ENJOY with your favorite tomato sauce for dipping!
