We used to do this alot as a kid. Here are some of our recipes:
1) marshmallows and a hershey bar
2) pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella or cheddar cheese
3) cherry, apple or blueberry pie filling
4) scrambled egg, cheese and ham
dinty moore beef stew

Don't forget to butter the outside of the bread or you get a sticky mess.

We did lots more but I can't remember them all. Too many coctails tonight

The sky is the limit with pie irons, basically anything that will fit inside, or between two slices of bread will work. Eggs, sandwiches, burgers, pigs in a blanket, campfire french toast, coffee cake, fish filets, etc. Other types of bread can be used with good results, or tortillas.

One of my favorites is to make campfire cornish pasties, finely chop a couple carrots, onions, potatoes, turnup, what-have-you(parboil to speed cooking - may be done ahead of time), cut homemade or prepare pie crust pastry to fit the pie iron, place enough filling on top of pastry, then top with another piece of pastry, heat over med heat until golden brown.

Another good pie is to take left over taco meat. Add onions cheese and taco sause.

If you ever made breakfast burritos, put the fixins in the pie irons . Those are really tasty.

Also pick up Llyods BBQ's. They have pork,chicken,etc. in a resealable containers they also are good.

Try different varities of pizzas . Combine pepperonies or sausage (pre-cooked)with cheese onions mushrooms and pizza sause.
