I have made (and enjoyed) Chicken Ala King without waffles, but these waffles kick it up a notch, for sure!

Chicken Ala King

• 1/4 c. green pepper, minced
• 3 tbsp. celery, diced
• 1 teaspoon onion, minced
• 2 tbsp. butter
• 1 tbsp. flour
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 2 (3 ounce.) cans mushrooms
• 2 (5 1/2 ounce.) cans chicken (or possibly 2 c.chicken, diced)
• 1/4 c.pimentos

Directions

1.  Cook  green pepper, celery and onions in butter till tender. Blend in flour; gradually add in soup; add in mushrooms and liquid. Cook till thick, stirring constantly. Add in chicken, pimentos and seasonings; heat thoroughly.
2. Serve over toast points or possibly rice or possibly biscuits. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Cornmeal Waffles

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 cup club soda
• 1/3 cup canola or vegetable oil

Preparation

1. Sift together first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in cheese. Combine eggs and next 3 ingredients; gently stir into dry ingredients just until blended.
2. Spoon a heaping 1 cup batter evenly onto a preheated, lightly greased waffle iron. Cook 5 to 10 minutes or until crisp and done. Repeat with remaining batter.
3. Transfer waffles to a baking sheet, and keep warm, uncovered, in the oven at 200° until ready to serve. Waffles can be frozen in zip-top freezer bags and reheated in oven or toaster oven.

Enjoy!
