Sweet Potato Waffles

OMG! These puppies are DElicious!! Now, I only need to perfect the texture; the flavor is amazing. I am not a baker -- not by any stretch of the imagination -- so I reached out to Chef Nancy Rostomily. She is Ms. Chef Baker extraordinaire at The International Culinary Schools... hope she can help. They are just a little too gooey in the center. If you have a little advice for me, please let me know. Leave a comment or two; I would love to hear from you! I'm thinking that adding a little less of the sweet potato mixture into my batter will solve the situation, but what do I know about these things?? My area of expertise lies in the savory, not so much the sweet.

Any plans for Juneteenth? I will be participating in a competition for the American Heart Association...a chef cook off, if you will. We'll be given a few "mystery" ingredients and about 45 minutes to come up with a heart healthy dish. I think it will be fun. Come out a show some love if you're in the area. It will be held at William Land Park in Sacramento on June 18th. Go to SacramentoJuneteenth.com for more information.

Tomorrow is another day. I am excited about moving on to the muffin trials... let's see how that goes.
