Looking for a quick snack or dinner idea that kids will love? This kid-friendly food hack makes a warm, hot serving of pizza possible in less than five minutes. No need to turn on your oven or call the delivery guy — with a few simple ingredients, you can make Waffle Pizza tonight!
Here’s what you’ll need: a can of biscuits, pizza sauce, cheese, mini pepperoni, and a waffle iron. Make sure to use pizza sauce or sundried tomato sauce, as spaghetti sauce is too thin and will seep out the edges as your pizza cooks.
