Leslie Knope once said, “We need to remember what’s important in life: friends, waffles, work. Or waffles friends, work,” and, since it is National Waffle Day, that’s a sentiment we can get behind! Usually waffles bring to mind images of maple syrup and pats of butter, but this year we’re venturing into the savory side of waffle territory. With recipes from cornbread waffles with chili to ginger-sesame waffles with Indonesian fried chicken, your culinary adventure in celebration of National Waffle Day awaits!
