MAKING MEALS IN MY MINI DASH WAFFLE MAKER
It's a lazy holiday weekend and I'm making some delicious meals with my mini dash waffle maker. I picked mine up for $10 and I've had a lot of fun making meals with it. It's perfect for just one person, or if you want to serve a meal buffet style where each member gets to prepare their own. I think this option is especially fun for families with children or grandchildren.

My daughter and I did this one day with our big waffle iron. We waffled all the various leftovers in the fridge 😂 we called it “will it waffle” long before that was even a thing. We waffled leftover fried rice, pizza, mashed potatoes etc. so much fun!

i haven't used my mini waffle maker in ages - this is actually a great way to do food prep for breakfast in a quick way. The last time I used it I think I was using either a cookie or homemade muffin mix (it's been that long lol) I bet the three ingredient peanut butter cookie recipe would be pretty cool in a big waffle form. Possibilities are endless with that mini waffle maker!

I agree 👍 The flavor was so much better than a regular omelette too. Something happens to the egg flavor and it tastes better in this. That's awesome that your waffle maker has lasted so long. It's probably built much better than the ones today.

Glad for your newest schedule and support glad you used the mini waffle maker! I have several different types. Griddle, cake pops, donut maker, waffle maker. I purchased each for $5 at Walmart but had no idea how to use them. I’m wondering if I could make the chaffles and freeze them? Like mini omelet ones? I’m having major surgery soon and stocking my freezer with things I can have at the ready. Thanks for always being here giving surprising new tips!

They do freeze but you can also freeze planned-overs instead of leftovers. When you are chopping onions, or garlic, or even celery, put some chopped in the freezer to grab a spoonful to toss in. Can also use instant mashed potatoes in them, nice and crispy potato cakes.

What a great method for cooking! With the high price of housing many people have had to find low cost, alternative methods of cooking. People are living in a space where they are not able to have a regular stove. A waffle iron and a mini fridge would take you a long way. Maybe even run on solar???

I have that exact same waffle maker! I’ve never used it for anything other than waffles before but I guess I’ll have to fix that!
If you're ever wondering about what kind of content you wanted to make, I would love to see some vegan waffle maker recipes. I thought about substituting the egg with a chickpea flour and water slurry but I'm tired of the flavor of chickpea flour so I'm wondering what I can use to substitute the egg 🤔
@ArdentMichelle
2 ай бұрын
Someone else said they use JUST EGG which uses a mung bean. I think it's costly but it might be worth it for the variety.
I love this idea! Now the wheels are turning in my brain. I think I'll try some leftover mashed potatoes with garlic and spices to create a sort of potato pancake. I also thought of trying different pureed vegetables or shredded to make crispy vegetable "waffles" (like carrots, zucchini, etc.). I might try bread, butter and cheese to make a sort of grilled cheese sandwich. I enjoy your channel because you help me to be more creative in the kitchen and still save money.

I bought a waffle maker to make fat free waffles. Mashed banana, rolled oats and a little water. Cinamon, vanilla optional. Takes longer than regular waffles to crisp but worth it!!!!!!! As a vegan, instead of egg I would use chickpea flour and water or aquafaba. Havent tried that but its going to get a try. Michelle, another thing we have in common are those square white plates. Perfect for sandwiches and toasties. 😊

Hi Michelle, I didn't get a chance to see this yesterday but just finished watching. It was great, I have a large waffle maker so I can do mega amounts at once 😉. It has four cavities so I make a couple of different ones at the same time. You said it's a different kind of video but I think it was spot on, the ingredients are pretty much budget and not that much of any ingredient makes it good to use up small amounts of stuff in the fridge. It gave me other ideas too. I'm glad you get another day off occasionally mid week, that will be nice and it's practically summer. Hope this week goes well for you. Charlotte
