We're new to Pie Irons and would like to try some ideas with the grand kids. I know you can make a grilled cheese sandwich, but what else do the little kids like?

I have been wracking my brain to remember some of the things we have done in the pie irons. I mentioned a few above, but another we did that was really good was to take some canned biscuits and cut them in half and flatten, spray one side and put one on the pie iron and then spoon in 1 good TBL of cream of chicken soup mixed with some frozen mixed veggies (think chicken pot pie). Cover with remaining flattened biscuit and use a fork to smash the edges together, put over the fire to bake.

We had some oozing, but it was still really good.

We did some little mini frozen tater tots, and added onion, green pepper, bacon crumbled, and grated cheese. It was awesome!!!

How about using frozen waffles for the bread and either fill with desert stuff, or breakfast stuff. Saw one today that was the precooked strips of bacon, cheese and egg inside plain waffles.

we would do pie irons for our camping club cook outs.
we had filling for pizza, tacos, mushrooms, onions, peppers, cheeses, lunch meats
all kinds of bread from white, sour dough, multi grain and biscuits.
desserts were pie fillings, cream cheese, chocolate, marshmellows, etc
we used bread, pie dough
our rule was to cut it into quarters and share -
the is no limit to what you can do- enjoy

In addition to above, we have cooked the canned Cinnamon Rolls. Crescent rolls work great to make pizza pockets,fruit pies eyc. Kids loved it.

We have also done our s'mores in the pie irons. Put everything in, toast over the fire.

We make a dessert type pie. Raisin bread buttered on the outside, filled with strawberry jam, sliced bananas, and sliced marshmallows to help hold it together. You could also put Nutella in it instead of jam.

We use the canned croissants (or just plain bread) with pre-cooked Manwich meat. Add cheese or whatever and put in the fire and cook until the croissants are done and the meat is hot in the middle.

We have used them at breakfast and put white bread with an egg and some sausage pieces (pre-cooked) in the middle, covered with another piece of bread. You have to keep it level until it starts to cook.

With all of these, be sure to spray the irons before adding bread.
