Different take on waffles that will make you wonder why you haven’t been eating them every morning. Savory waffles made with smoked cheddar cheese and scallions.

Waffles are so much fun. I love making waffles but it is definitely a weekend breakfast. Experimenting with waffles can be very interesting. I’ve tried various fruity waffles and chocolate waffles but I haven’t tried savory waffles. Even my hubby was a little thrown off by waffles not being sweet. He got over it pretty quickly once he tried it. Its different, but so good!

      Hey Carlee! It’s always hard to estimate how many waffles because people use different shape and size waffle makers. In my round waffle maker, it’s about 4 large waffles.

    I absolutely love your recipe! I am writing vegetarian recipe round ups on my blog in 2018 (to encourage people to try meatless monday- everyone has to start somewhere) and would love to feature you. You can check out my blog (for beginner environmentalists) at sunshineguerrilla.com. Is it alright if I share this link to your recipe?

    These look like a good savory waffle! You’ve already got the green, just use some Irish cheddar, and they’d be perfect for St. Paddy’s. 🙂

    Thank you for linking to Must Try Monday. Have you used waffles for sandwiches? These seem to be a good combination for doing so.
