We issued ample warning; we’ve become waffle-crazed gentlemen. Ever since receiving a Smart Waffle Pro from Breville, Sunday has been designated “Waffle Day.” Thus far, sweet has dominated. Today, though, savory took its turn. We made sharp cheddar cornmeal waffles with fresh parsley.

Sounds delicious, right? They were. We constructed open-faced breakfast sandwiches with thick cut bacon and a sunny side up egg. Next time, we’re adding avocado. And, we’ll substitute honey for maple syrup.

Add these to the Sunday waffle rotation.

We topped our waffles with thick-cut bacon and a sunny side up egg. We drizzled on pure maple syrup and garnished with parsley.
