There are two things I have really come to love recently--weekends (though yesterday I had to work) and Trader Joe's Baking Mix.
Since I'm an early riser that also suffers from insomnia, and Superhusband is the polar opposite, it means I can wake up before him on weekends and make him breakfast. This breakfast was a combination of our favorite breakfast items (I love waffles and he loves bacon).
Long ago, I stopped ordering waffles at a restaurant. The idea that it costs $6+ for no expertise has always been a mystery to me. I've been using the same waffle iron ($16 from Amazon) for the past few months now (with the batter from Trader Joe's mix added with a generous spoonful of sugar), and it always delivers crispy but tender perfection.
To Assemble:
1) Lay a waffle on a plate.
2) Sprinkle powdered sugar (I always use a flour sifter to get rid of the lumps).
3) Lay four crispy pieces of bacon on top.
4) Pour fresh syrup (I prefer Grade B) as desired.
I don't even like bacon that much and I LOVED this (and of course, Superhusband was making devouring sounds). Definitely try it. Enjoy!

I tried this combi before and like it. But I did not make anything myself. I just assemble it right from the breakfast buffet table :)
Hi!
Thank you for commenting on my post; glad to know you have been enjoying the best of what San Francisco has to offer too!
Sebo is just plain fantastic; you must go there! I wish I could make it a regular, but it's a bit on the high end so it's currently an occasional treat for me..:)
Great to see your blogging adventures too!
Thanks for the comment! I've always LOVED bacon and maple syrup. One of these days I'm determined to try Bacon Brittle, which I heard is really good. When I'm feeling daring I suppose :)
