Let's Make YUMMY Pizza Pockets with My Nostalgia MyMini Sandwich Maker!!!

[@kimberlywashington2873]

AWESOME! Loved the demonstration! Watched this with my 10 year old son who is on the Autism Spectrum, he was very entertained and we learned how to make a pizza sandwich! Blessings to you!

[@erikshappywife]

Awww, I am so glad you both enjoyed watching. Tell him I said "hello and thank you for watching my video". I hope he has a sandwich maker so that he can make grilled cheese and pizza sandwiches, too :o)

[@bbyygurrl]

We make our pockets/pizza buns the same i also put a tiny bit of cheese and then lay the pepps before the rest handful of mozzi🤍❤️ ....i grew up with a similar sammich press 💓 ohhh the nostalgia..i love that its the name of the grill...mmm😊 amazing! Love this video

[@erikshappywife]

Thank you so much. I love my sandwich maker, I use it all the time. Have you ever tried the fruit pockets ("pies")? They are amazing too!

[@jlocey87]

Love this little machine. Omelets are amazing... & brownies. Kids are loving it too.

[@erikshappywife]

I really love mine so much.

[@aekfuturewriter13]

I have that sandwich maker! I’m excited to try making a pizza pocket! Thank you for sharing this!

[@erikshappywife]

You are so welcome. I also show you how to make peach turnovers in another video and you can use any fruit pit filling that you would like. These sandwich makers are awesome! Thanks for watching.

[@aekfuturewriter13]

@@erikshappywife yum! The peach turnover sounds delicious! I’ll definitely watch that!

[@erikshappywife]

@@aekfuturewriter13 they were SO GOOD!!! I want to try pumpkin ones in the fall...I wonder if that would work? 🤔

[@KeaneLuvr]

Yes! I just used mines for the first time today to make a veggie omelet. Love it!

@@erikshappywife Thank you!!

Just got a sandwich mini for $2 at a yard sale it's in perfect condition. I cooked a ham and cheese used a skillet to catch any overflow. Took it outside hosed it off hung it to dry. You are right tasty. Easy too. On a second note people if you have a 750 watt inverter you can use this in your car . It's below 600 watts !

[@erikshappywife]

Oh, wow!!! Grilled cheese in your car? That would be awesome on road trips 😀❤️

[@erikshappywife]

What an awesome find for only $2

[@karenlewkowitz5858]

Wow, good find! I found one for $4. 730 watts. Ok with 1000 watt inverter in our camper

[@erikshappywife]

@@karenlewkowitz5858 what an amazing find! I hope you make and enjoy lots of ooie gooie goodness❤️🍕😀🧀

[@carmenmartinez2882]

520 watts according to their specks.

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

I always check my pepperoni too! I just ordered one of these. A good tip for cleaning these mini, or regular grills and griddles is to use a small spray bottle and spritz it while hot and then just wipe with a paper towel. I saw this on another video, but I have done it.

[@erikshappywife]

Oh, that's a great idea! I will try that. I hope you enjoy your maker for years to come!!!

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

@@erikshappywife I received my mini sandwich maker last week and have used it quite a bit. It works very well, my only concern is the locking mechanism, it's seems to be made of weaker plastic, so I don't know how long that will hold up. But in using it I have come up with more cleaning tools other than the spray bottle and paper towel. I have included in my "tool kit" some cotton swabs and Dollar Tree toothbrush! I find them both very useful when cleaning all of the books and crannies on the plates. I don't know how many reviews I've read with people complaining (whiney voice) Ohhh, it's just sooo hard to cleaaaan! All of those little nooks and crannies. I can't do iiiit! Well, if you had a brain, some cotton swabs, a paper towel, a Dollar Tree toothbrush and a spray bottle it wouldn't be! 😁

[@erikshappywife]

@@Mr.56Goldtop I've had mine for quite some time and, so far, the latch is still in fine, working order. I hope yours holds up as well. Yes, cleaning is not that hard...I don't know why people complain. As long as you don't allow the cheese to harden on the maker, it is pretty easy to clean. I am glad you are enjoying your maker 😀❤️

[@johnbarone8948]

Perfect little munchie maker, compact, versatile and easy to operate and clean.

[@erikshappywife]

It sure is...now I want a pizza pocket! LOL :o) Thanks so much for watching!!!

[@gerdsfargen6687]

Hey this is great! I love your recipe and channel! Muchos appreciatos!

[@erikshappywife]

Awwww, thank you so much

[@leishamcalpin3171]

I bought one of the sandwich makers the other day. I made ham and grilled cheese. Turned out so good. Doing the pizza pocket next!

[@erikshappywife]

I hope you like the pizza pockets. They also make GREAT fruit turnovers. Just butter the bread like usual, then fill them with fruit pie filling of your choice and cook in the sandwich maker (do not overfill or you will have a MESS!) when they are cooked, dust the outside of the turnovers with powdered sugar... YUMMY!!! :o)

[@Sh4y1028]

I love your personality. I just bought this same one, but mine is pink! I'm gonna try this! I made an omelette in it the other day and it was so so good!! Cane out perfect! New subscriber!!

[@jlocey87]

I have one & I absolutely LOVE IT... Fruit pies are fun to make & grandchildren love them... & lava pies... Yuuuum

Have you tried making corn dogs in it yet? They are good too! I use Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix and I dice the hotdogs up so there will be some in every bite. The grandkiddos love them!!!

They are awesome, aren't they? :o)

[@kmslvdrrr]

Thank!!! I tried it simple but yummy!!! 😍

[@erikshappywife]

Glad you liked it!! It is a great little maker. You should try the fruit turnovers, too. Make then the same way, only use your favorite pie filling inside...and when finished and while they are still warm, sprinkle with some powdered sugar...YUMMY!!! :o)

[@Bill23799]

I suggest using a Silicone Spatula to scoop stuff out of your sammich maker and to clean out the bits while it is hot. Overtime if you use metal implements you will scratch up your non stick surface,

[@erikshappywife]

I got a little silicone spatula just for that purpose since filming this video :o) Thanks for the tip!!! and thanks for watching!!!

[@barbheston2396]

I useine several times a week. My 7 year old grandson loves grilled peanut butter and bacon sandwiches. Not my choice but he loves them.❤

[@erikshappywife]

Hmmm....add some applebutter and that might be a good sandwich ;o)

[@howardaspinall5675]

What's the red sauce you used? Cheers.

[@erikshappywife]

it was just jarred pizza sauce...the kind you can pick up at pretty much any grocery store. Thanks so much for watching

[@juancervantes313]

How long did you leave it in there for?????

[@erikshappywife]

I like mine pretty browned, so I try to leave them in for about 4 to 5 minutes...when the smell doesn't make me too impatient and make me get them out sooner... 😆

[@madlin_]

or wait till the light is off

[@erikshappywife]

@@madlin_ yes, or until the light goes out.

[@daniella7356]

How many minutes should you wait for it to be that cooked?

[@erikshappywife]

I usually wait for about 3 minutes or so...as long as the cooker is warmed up before you put the sandwich in, that should be long enough to get a nice browned sandwich. Thanks for watching

[@roses609]

Looks delicious

[@erikshappywife]

They really are so good. My grandkids especially love them❤️ thanks for watching 😀

[@robertlipsey6056]

I wish you would have told us how long it was in there. I tried a grilled cheese and it turned out very hard and dry. I followed directions and used cooking spray on the cooking surfaces.

[@erikshappywife]

I don't time it...but I think I only leave it in for maybe 3-4 minutes. Sometimes I check it after just a couple of minutes if I am making it for the grandkiddos because they don't like theirs very brown. However, I do like mine pretty browned, so I tend to cook mine longer. Anyway...I hope this helps. Thanks for watching!!!

[@robertlipsey6056]

@@erikshappywife ok. Thank you for your help.

[@nobodyukno8869]

Was this about cleaning the grill or making the sandwich?🤔 lol a close up of the layered fillings would have been nice

[@erikshappywife]

about both, I guess. Sorry I didn't get a close up. Thanks for watching.

[@bcreative2772]

I had one in the late 80s. My Grandma taught me how to use it so I could cook my own food at home. My sister who I lived with after my mom died was an OCD bitch who wouldn't let me cook bc she didn't want me to have any skills home maker or otherwise. She packed the sandwich maker away after yelling at me the first time I used it. This past couple years she been trying to take over my son's life so we're kinda not speaking though I've tried to suck it up and reach out to her. Anyways my Grandma used to always get little coffee cakes too. I saw them on the shelf at walmart started crying like Grandma miss u so much. Then once I stopped crying I saw this product so yes it's very nostalgic for me happy tears

[@bcreative2772]

I feel like my Grandma is with me during hard times

[@erikshappywife]

I am so sorry that you have such a sister :o( We have folks like that in our family, too. I think most people do, unfortunately. I was very clost to my maternal grandmother and I miss her so much every day. So many things bring back good memories of her...I am glad that you have good reminders of yours as well

Buddy: It crushed you? It was MY paw that YOU stepped on mom.

[@erikshappywife]

and I felt so bad, too!!! :o(

[@Bill23799]

I would use Garlic powder instead of garlic salt to spice up your pizza pocket bread. I have high BP and salt is the devil, my heart guy at the VA told me so.

[@erikshappywife]

Uh oh...did I say garlic salt? Oops!!! I ONLY use garlic powder and onion powder, NEVER the salt versions because I too have high BP and cannot control the amount of salt as easily using the salted versions. I just sprinkle on a little sale if needed and use the garlic and/or onion powders to my heart's content :o) Thank you for mentioning this, it is so important!!!

[@carmenmartinez2882]

I clean mine out with a mixture of water and vinegar in a spray bottle, vinegar disinfects too.

That is SO much butter!

I try to scrape off as much as I can, to make the butter as thin as possible...but, if you prefer, you can leave off the butter. I have and it turns out ok. Not as tasty as it is with butter, but it works.
