Waffles, french toast or pancakes? That’s the question I always get asked whenever I go to breakfast or brunch with friends and family. I’m greedy so I like all three, but there is something about a golden crispy waffle that can bring a big goofy smile to my face.
So a few years ago, I decided why settle for waffles with just fruit and maple syrup at breakfast or brunch when I can have them anytime of the day. And that’s when I came up with these grilled cheese waffles with bacon and chicken sandwiches, a new family favorite. Thanks to the all NEW Gluten Free Waffles from Eggo my goddaughter gets to have them when I don’t feel like whipping up a batch from scratch.
Did you know that Eggo Gluten Free Waffles are available in Original or Cinnamon flavor? I was recently sent some Eggo Gluten Free Waffles to try and they arrived just in time for my goddaughters spring break visit. While I don’t have any dietary restrictions that keep me from eating gluten, we recently found out that she does so I try to keep gluten free foods around just for her.
While the waffles are tasty with just a shake of powdered sugar or drizzled with maple syrup and topped with a dollop of butter, I thought it would be fun to switch things up and make us sandwiches for lunch.
