L'eggo my Eggo!

I can't begin to describe how much I love waffles. I have eaten two Eggo waffles for breakfast for probably 95% of my adult life. That's almost 7,000 waffles, by my count. I like the banana bread flavor, the cinammon toast flavor, and I used to like the blueberry flavor, until they changed it and it became cloying. I don't do the buttermilk, either, or any of this new-fangled chocolate-chip, jelly-filled nonsense.

Mostly I like plain old original waffles. I buy them in 32-packs. I'll have them either with real maple syrup (I pour a puddle of syrup on my plate, and rock it fondue style, without a fork and knife). Lately I've been on a peanut-butter-and-banana jag. I discovered that if you microwave sliced bananas for about 15 seconds, they carmelize, and make one pretty amazing addition to a hot crispy peanut-buttered waffle. Can't beat a peanut-butter-and-banana-waffle sandwich for a meal on the go. I also find that Eggo waffles also make a great base for ice cream sundaes, and for combinations of jam and fresh fruit.

That's all. Just thought I'd share.

    I share your passion for waffles. I too love those crispedy round morsels. Eggo waffles are good in a pinch to satisfy that must-have desire, but nothing beats a home-made waffle, hot, crispy and steaming from the griddle. May I offer you an invitation to a Waffle feast at our house for brunch one weekend morning??
