Savory Southwestern Waffles image

This hearty and spicy cornmeal waffle can be eaten any time of day and is a nice substitute for cornbread when it's too hot out to use your oven. You can also add thinly diced onions or red pepper flakes to the batter if you wish. I like to serve these with jalapeno jelly for breakfast or chili for dinner, and sometimes I eat them with barbeque sauce slathered on top.
