12 Waffle Recipes That Go Way Beyond Just Breakfast And Brunch
It's such a great moment when you realize you're an adult and that means you can do what you want, when you want — and that includes eating breakfast foods any time you want, however you want. Breakfast foods are great, and waffles are even better — which is why these amazing waffle recipes are pretty much the only things on our minds these days. Eggs, pancakes, and bacon all have their charm, but there's just something special about waffles. Maybe it's their many little pockets of goodness. Maybe it's because they are so versatile — after all, Taco Bell did introduce the Waffle Taco last year.
No matter what the reason is, folks seem to have a strong appetite for waffles, and it doesn't seem to be calming down soon. Here are some absolutely scrumptious ways to kick up your waffle game.
