I bought her a non-stick waffle iron of her own, and now she is a waffle pro. We make a double batch - one batch to eat, and one to freeze for the toaster oven. I use spelt and/or white whole wheat flour. She would never eat the whole grain commercial freezer waffles, but she eats the ones we make.Matriarchyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626790347402266263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-81264841376027867052009-01-11T21:12:00.000-06:002009-01-11T21:12:00.000-06:00Country Girl- Which challenge?

I am participating in the Freeze yer buns challenge by Crunchy Chicken, the Independence Days Challenge by Sharon Astyk and The Growing Challenge by Melinda at One Green Generation. I think all the links work on the side- they're all great challenges! I'm finding the Independence Days Challenge helpful at keeping tabs on what I've accomplished.<BR/>JudyJudy Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121300109427407095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-80877963834246888132009-01-11T20:56:00.000-06:002009-01-11T20:56:00.000-06:00I love grapefruit too!

We too make waffles (and pancakes) and freeze them - pop the waffles in the toaster, the pancakes in the microwave and very good very quick breakfast.

Haven't tried giving it to her yet, though. <BR/><BR/>Good luck with the waffles!Electronic Goosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161775422936225445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-74571225766552209062009-01-11T07:31:00.000-06:002009-01-11T07:31:00.000-06:00Ooh, I need to save some of my peels!

I have a really basic one and every other week or so I make a big batch (well, for 1 person, about 20) and stick the in a freezer bag to freeze for the coming week. Then I can just grab a couple before work, pop in the toaster oven and there it is, quick waffles before heading to work. I figure its the same as the commercial companies, but this way I can play with flours, mix-ins etc just as I want - e.g. I added rye flour last week, delicious!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-44158642578573628852009-01-10T22:47:00.000-06:002009-01-10T22:47:00.000-06:00I'm definitely going to try the grapefruit peels. ...I'm definitely going to try the grapefruit peels. And you know what, I just had the waffle discussion with my hubby. He loves eggo waffles, but I was thinking of making my own as well and freezing them. Great minds think alike I guess. :)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16685887988265673434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-10037416534530324942009-01-10T22:09:00.000-06:002009-01-10T22:09:00.000-06:00The grapefruit peels look interesting.

I made a quadruple batch the other day and they only lasted three days. <BR/><BR/>I am pretty happy if we make enough on Sunday morning to get us through breakfasts for the week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-59356716413614203422009-01-10T21:03:00.000-06:002009-01-10T21:03:00.000-06:00hey, who said that I wasn't excited for waffles? I...hey, who said that I wasn't excited for waffles? I've never had a home made waffle before (pancakes, yes, bread, yes, pasta, yes. But the only waffles i've had are those eggo ones, and the blueberry ones make me sick to my stomach (though I've learned not to complain. I've never been able to like them since the LTP... not an enjoyable experiance...) the chocolate ones are okay, but they lack in decent chocolate, and amount of chocolate.Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05839571935465747197noreply@blogger.com
