Cinnamon Pecan Waffles {A Recipe Redux}

Serves: 8 (1 waffle)

Happy Tuesday! I hope you are having a great week!! I am really excited today because it is the 21st of the month and that means it is time to share this months Recipe Redux challenge recipe! For those of you who aren’t familiar with this group, it is the first and only recipe challenge founded by registered dietitians. The Recipe ReDux is focused on taking delicious dishes, keeping them delicious, but making them better for you. It was founded by 3 amazing dietitians with a belief that healthier eating should always taste delicious. And let me tell you, I totally agree! The amazing bloggers who participate in this have come up with so many delicious, yet healthy recipes! If you haven’t been to the Recipe ReDux site yet, definitely pop over and check it out! Plus you can check out the other recipes from this month below!!

This months challenge was ‘May Showers’…..as in Bridal Showers, Baby Showers, Graduation Parties and any gathering that might be revolved around brunch! When I think of brunch, the first thing that comes to mind is the amazing waffle bar that my mother likes to make for special gatherings! She brings out the waffle iron and lays out quite the spread of toppings from fruit, nuts, whipped cream, chocolate chips, etc! It’s like a sundae on a waffle! So, for this month’s challenge I decided to spice up our normal waffles……and top mine with my 2 favorites; greek yogurt and strawberries! I hope you enjoy!
