pulled pork on a cornbread waffle

https://passthesushi.com/pulled-pork-cornbread-waffles/

I made this a couple of weeks ago on a Sunday night that just happened to be the one year anniversary of my husband's passing...

everyone loved this so much, Zoie even asked if I would make this for her birthday dinner...she asked if grandpa would have liked this and the answer is no...he would have had the pulled pork and cole slaw but not the cornbread waffle...

I was not particularly feeling real good (from chemo) but I did have the waffle and immediately fell in love with it...

I will definitely make this again and again...

(when I was making this, I needed more of the cornbread mix then it called for)...

this stuff is so seriously good, addicting...we had forgotten how good it really is and I do not care for mayo based dips...you have to be careful around it, cause you will eat the whole bowl...

happy eating

weekly menu post 1/1/18 through 1/6/18 easy dinners

it's very hard to come home after a late day of chemo, and even though you do not feel like eating there are still family members that enjoy home cooking and Tim and I are trying very hard to not eat out. and since the cat died, we have done pretty well for ourselves...we have not had fast food at all...so no matter how bad I feel I like to have a home cooked meal and who knows it just might be the one day I can eat...I do have those although they are very few...most days, top ramen, saltines, and ginger ale are my best friends...

Monday 1/1.............beef stroganoff (Tim's favorite)
Tuesday 1/2.............leftovers
Wednesday 1/3........hamburger soup
Thursday 1/4...........pancakes and eggs
Friday 1/5................chicken and wild rice casserole
Saturday 1/6............pulled pork sandwich on cornbread waffle (*new recipe, cannot wait)

new hashbrown casserole, waffle cinnamon rolls

New Year's Day breakfast to watch the parade with..


.https://therecipecritic.com/2014/12/best-breakfast-casserole/, for some reason Tim was not thrilled with this...he said he was a little watery, so not sure what I would do different next time...everyone else said it was good...

to go along with this, I made cinnamon rolls in the waffle iron and these he did love...I bought the Pillsbury Grand Cinnabon Rolls...

here's to 2018, it has got to be better than last year for me
