What's On the Menu Monday

This is a fun meal to make when lots of people are coming over. It is one that people can join in and help, or you can do it yourself. If someone is cooking with you, split duties by assigning the waffles to one group and the Topping to another. If you are doing this alone, turn on waffle iron and prepare the waffle mixture. Then prepare the topping and let it sit while you cook the waffles. This is an AMAZING meal, full of down home taste!

I can't wait to try this recipe! Cornbread is my favorite food in the whole world. My mom made it every day when I was growing up.
I make a similar dish called "Renegade Tacos" made with ground beef. I don't have it in written form, but would be glad to share it sometime.
I love you guys and miss you so much.
