It’s a pizza dream come true! The bite-sized, poppable, exploding, little handheld pizza pockets (aka: pillows) that have been providing microwave comfort to teenage boys’ insatiable appetite, college students’ all-night study sessions, and boisterous game day sports fans for decades. For some reason pizza and celiac disease/ food allergies never tend to go together. From actual pizza parlors to all the frozen and processed pizza goodies on the market.

Breakfast, lunch, or snack, PB&J is good for any time of day! These Mini Gluten-Free Peanut Butter & Jelly Waffle Sandwiches are vegan, fun for kids & adults, healthy & protein-packed! A recipe for all peanut butter lovers and anyone who wants to shakeup their boring sandwich routine!

Before I made these mini waffles, the first recipe I made in that fancy little waffle maker I found at Marshalls was this PB&J “sandwich”. Waffles are good, peanut butter is to die for, jelly is the perfect sweet addition, and breakfast is the greatest meal. Lunch can be boring, but sandwiches are always a no-fail go-to and can be incredible delicious. Why not combine ALL those things into one incredible meal?Read More
