To make these tasty Grilled Pizza Sandwiches I started by laying out 8 pieces of gluten free bread on a baking sheet.

I spread margarine over each piece, making sure to get to the edges.

For sandwiches I like to use little Northern Bakehouse bread.  It is nice to finally have large slices of gluten free bread!

After spreading the margarine I flipped the slices of bread over and sprinkled shredded mozzarella over 4 of the slices.

 

You could also use slices of mozzarella.

Then I covered the cheese with some pizza toppings.  I chose to use sliced pepperoni, diced ham, sliced red pepper, and bacon bits.

The toppings can be adjusted to suit your own taste buds.  Have a variety of toppings available and let each person create their own!

I sprinkled more shredded mozzarella over the other ingredients.

Then I covered the pizza toppings with the other slice of bread making sure to have the margarine side up.

I set my waffle iron for the darkest setting and when it was heated I placed one sandwich on it.  

You may have a larger waffle iron and be able to cook more than one at a time.

While the sandwich was cooking I heated up some pasta sauce in the microwave to use for dipping.  You could use pizza sauce if you have some.

Once the green light came on I opened the waffle iron and removed the sandwich.

I sliced it and placed it on a serving plate.

Then I served it with some of the heated pizza sauce.

These Waffled Grilled Pizza Sandwiches were quickly devoured in our house and we will be making them again soon!
