Savory Cornmeal Waffles with Eggs and Salsa-Guest Post with Joanne Eats Well With Others

Guys-I have the honor of introducing you, today, to Joanne from Eats Well With Others! Joanne and I met at a brunch (ironically?) with a bunch of food bloggers in the city, about a year ago, and I totally fell in love with her and her blog! She is so down to earth, sweet, funny, smart, and omgoshhh her food is gorgeous AND delicious! Plus-this lady can totally relate to me right now. She is also in wedding planning mode (she actually recently shared some beautious shots from her engagement shoot!)-funny story: at the brunch, it was pretty evident that 3 of us ladies were at a "just about ready to get engaged" point in our lives (Joanne, I, and Tara)  and then time passed and I watched as Tara and Joanne both got engaged. And I stared at Michael, like, "See? THEY'RE BOTH ENGAGED! It is myyyy turn!" And then it was. And all was right with the world.

Anywhozzle, I love Joanne. You'll love Joanne. Commence the lovefest.

The Brunch Dilemma.

We've all been there.

You finally get seated at your (and everyone else's, apparently) favorite spot, ready to eat your own hand out of severe hunger.

And then you're expected to make all of these life (or at least mood) altering decisions!

Savory or sweet? Breakfast or lunch? Carb coma or protein overload?

It's a wonder our heads don't explode.

Thankfully, I have come up with a solution to this predicament of all predicaments.

Savory waffles! Topped with a hefty dose of spicy salsa and your eggs of choice. I happen to live with a sad soul who is afflicted with runny-yolk-a-phobia, so I went the scrambled route, but you should go with whatever your tastebuds desire.

This way you get your carbs, your proteins, breakfast, and lunch in every bite.

No decisions required other than how many people you want to invite over to brunch with you. And once word gets around that you'll be serving up these waffle treats, methinks your friends will be banging down your door for an invite.

Thanks so much, Kayle for inviting me to guest post! I'm sure you're breaking in your new home with lots of good food, and hopefully there's some brunch-ing included in all of that!

Savory Cornmeal Waffles with Eggs and Salsa
Ingredients:
  • 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 3 tbsp minced fresh chives
  • spicy salsa 
  • scrambled eggs
Preparation
  • Preheat waffle iron while you mix the batter.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. 
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and buttermilk.
  • Make a large well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it. Fold the wet into the dry until just combined. The mixture will still be a bit lumpy.
  • Cook the waffles according to the directions for your particular waffle iron. 
  • Serve waffles topped with the salsa, scrambled eggs, and chives.
AHHH SAVORY WAFFLES FTW!
Thank you sooo much Joanne!
