Last Saturday I had two treats. The first... Dr. J got up with our kiddies so I could sleep in. The second... I made and ate these. I tend to forgo breakfast messes much of the time with a simple smoothie, but I am so glad I went the route of chick'n & waffles. It was sooooo worth it! You will love the balance of flavors... sweet... spicy... savory... it's crazy good! Dr. J might make sure I sleep in every Saturday from now on if I make him these. Sounds good to me... I'd say a win/win for sure!

P.S. You chick'n waffles look and sound great...makes me wish I could have wheat! :( Keep the good ideas coming! :D
As for me, I just have always had an aversion to meat... and I feel like a vegan diet is better for me. There have been times in my life when I wasn't vegan and times when I was and I can really tell a difference. It's just a more conscious way of eating and living.
Looks great, I'm originally from Richmond so I know a thing or two about Chicken and Waffles- these looks great. I think I need to give Gardein another chance, I wasn't a fan at first but this recipe makes me want to give them another shot.
