I saw this recipe on the Rachael Ray Show and thought it was so great and wanted to add it to my other waffle sandwiches and pancakes. I tweaked it a little. Great Recipe- my family loved it- we had a side salad with it like she suggested. ENJOY!
NOTE:
Just think of all the othesandwichhe combinations to put into the waffle iron.
Like-
peanut butter and jelly
peanut butter and bananas
scrambled egg and bacon or sausage or ham
bacon and tomato
cheese, tomato,avocado and bacon
peanut butter,chocolate and marshmallows
I could go on and on but you get it........
