    Beet & Blueberry Waffles

    This is a fun way to add some colour and sneak a few veggies into a brunch favourite. It’s great with roasted, steamed, or even pickled beets. Feel free to serve these waffles with yogurt and honey instead of the usual maple syrup.

    Make waffles ahead and freeze until ready to use. You can pop them in the toaster or reheat under the broiler.
