Don Pepino Pizzeria Recipe Challenge
This recipe is my entry in the Don Pepino Pizzeria Recipe Challenge. For this recipe challenge, I used a savory waffle base along with Don Pepino Pizza Sauce, fresh mozzarella cheese and fresh basil leaves from my patio herb garden.
Don Pepino Pizza Sauce is a classic, old-school pizza sauce known for its simple tomato-forward flavor and iconic yellow can. Made with Jersey Fresh tomatoes, the sauce has a thick, slightly textured consistency that works especially well for homemade pizzas and other Italian-inspired recipes. Its straightforward flavor makes it an easy base for everything from traditional pizza to creative recipes like these Easy Waffle Personal Pizzas. You can find out more about them on their Facebook, Instagram and their website. #TheSauceBehindTheSlice #MadeWithDonPepino #DonPepinosRecipeChallenge
Easy Waffle Personal Pizzas
Start with your favorite waffle mixture as the base. Then add fresh herbs and dried spices to the waffle batter to make a savory mix.
With the base prepped, the next step is to make a batch of waffles. I used a mini waffle maker and made six waffles. Once the waffles were ready, I topped them with Don Pepino Pizza Sauce and fresh mozzarella, then broiled them to melt the cheese. After the cheese melted, I topped the mini waffle pizzas with fresh herbs.
