May I suggest that you prestack your ham and cheese and use a old ketchup bottle for the ease of delivering your batter to the iron. Much easier. So many possibilities. Great video. Thanks for sharing, I love your new waffle maker.
I would pour both bottoms at the same time and let the waffle iron divide them. Then add the cheese and ham and then the top. Rather than fumbling doing one at a time.
I make my gluten free bread as waffles. I use my waffles for bread for sandwiches. Now I have discovered chaffles and use them as bread for fried egg sandwiches or salad sandwiches with ranch dressing. 😊
We've been doing "wafflewiches" for several years. We make something similar to this recipe, but I substitute cornmeal for half of the flour. I also grate Swiss cheese and add it to the batter. The cornmeal makes the wafflewiches a bit heartier and crisper. We also do cake waffles for dessert - warm carrot cake waffles with ice cream are truly decadent (and a good way to get veggies into kids)!
I think you made the waffle sandwiches just perfect. Love your show! We lived in El Paso and I sure would have loved to have known those bathroom tips! Lol. We would go on picnics in the mountains. Graduated High School at Burgess High in 1973. My father was stationed at Fort Bliss. Got married, had kids, got divorced, and went back to school. Graduated with a Masters in Business from Wayland Baptist University and retired from Civil Service. Time sure flies when you're having fun! Lol. I'm 69 now and am forever grateful to my Lord Jesus for letting me retire and having my children. Amen!!
We love making savory waffles. We will do essentially the same thing but we flavor our batter with extra savory seasonings like pepper, onion, garlic, etc. 👨🍳 Love the idea of bulk batching and having them ready to go!! 🤩 Jims sauce talk just gave me the idea of adding a mornay sauce and a fried egg to the top for a take on a classic Croque Madame!! 😋
Oh, you've done it now 😊! Chief Tuckabuckaway made waffles this morning for breakfast. He saw this video and now has a list of 'stuffing' ideas, Turkey bacon among them. Not for the freezer, but tomato sliced thinly for some other combos. This is a great idea 💡 stuffed waffles! Thank you ❤❤❤❤.
I have that waffle iron on my wish list. I think I’d like to add a little dry mustard in the batter to give it a little zing with the ham and cheese. They all sound delicious!
I made these together. My husband and my daughter got excited! My daughter is a nurse and will be using these for easy and quick lunches. Thanks for a great idea and yes, I did buy that waffle maker! Happy Mother’s Day to me!😍🤣
I do love a waffle. I would never have thought of doing this, but it is an excellent idea. I was thinking some cream cheese would be great inside...like a cheesecake waffle. Lol
I am absolutely making these! My son plays soccer and I always pack our supper, but sandwiches are boring. Waffles are his favorite so I'm betting he will love this! 😊❤
Not sure if someone has already mentioned, but for those who need low carb batter, the keto community of keto dietary folks make "chaffles". Hubby has T2 diabetes so I use alternative bread batters, etc. I really enjoy using your ideas as a base and modifying if necessary. Thank you for all you do for us! 🤍🙏
We’re gonna try making chile relleno. Dice up the chili’s and grate the cheese. I make a casserole usually but this seems like a great alternative! Thanks!
I have not read other comments, so if I duplicate, I apologize. If speed is an issue, why not make the interior individual stacks before you start. Like a small row of cheese/ham/cheese, pick all 3 pcs up at once... less time while iron is open. Thanks for video. jjs
Good idea if you know someone who eats gluten free and misses hot pockets or breads and your looking for a quick bread substitute. Just use gluten free pancake or waffle mix.
This is pretty great! Your video about when you got that waffle iron inspired me to finally get a waffle iron after many years of debating it with myself, and I've been collecting savory-waffle ideas. 😂 I'll definitely try this. I couldn't find the waffle iron that you have but found another that I really like. Cooks consistently, cleans easily, stows away nicely.
Pam, how about staggering the cheese by putting the first on the left and the second one on the other side, it would be more even that way I would think. But this is an awesome idea and maybe I will invest in o waffle iron. I have never had one,
Love your videos! Little something that you can do to reheat? On a sunny day, but the bag of waffles 9or anything not to bulky) on the dash of your car for a hour or two, foods heat up great :)
I have a set of Calphalon non-stick cookware and love it! As long as you don't forget you are boiling eggs and go to bed and the eggs explode everywhere and the shells are cemented to the pan, they will last forever (unless Calphalon discontinues them).
Sadly, my husband isn't a fan of breakfast waffles. I really do think he would like this idea? Before I invest in a waffle iron, i may borrow one first? We don't like eating out, and this would be perfect for long trips to town! Thank you for all your clever inspiring ideas! ❤😊
I just took the poundcake out of the oven, and this pops up! Now, I need to make these, lol. I think I will use pantry items for filling. Canned ham diced and freeze dried cheese (reconstituted).
Great idea. Pam I have bee🎉 watching your bread making videos. For just standard bread can I use the stretch and fold method rather than kneading. I recently had a stroke and lost my right hand and need something a bit easier
You two are so inspiring! I like ham and cheese but I love hot sausage. I wonder if i can cook up sausage and crumble and drain it and use that in the waffle?
I am going to try this, and add Dijon mustard on top of the last slice of cheese, before pouring on the final quarter cup of batter. Like you said, endless variations. Thank you!
Cake mixes for a desert walffee scoop ice cream or hot fudge ore Carmel drizzled , canned apple pie or cherry pie fast desert some one show up great with coffee or tea hot coco
Oh wow - I have GOT to get me one of those waffle makers. I have been wanting one for a long time and that one looks perfect and easy to clean!! Great idea on the sandwiches!!
For kids add spinach powder and call them hulk walffees , carrots gold treasure, beets or blue berry powder, give them fancy names to get more veggies in them add little protein powder, add a little ovalteen, powder lots of vitamins good things.
Thank you for the video. Pam, I wondered why you didn't have your cheese/ham/cheese in stacks waiting to go? It would save quite a bit of time, and give that top waffle a better brown. Just curious.
If you can only have 1 off grid item to cook on the trail, what would it be??? Solar oven, gas stove, rocket stove, ketty ... , etc... ??? Just wondering where to spend the $$...
This is the first video of yours that I have watched. Thank you so very much for it! I"m just curious: what state are you in? It looks like the desert SW; I've lived in AZ, NM, and TX.
can you freeze dry these? looking for breakfast foods. thought of the jimmy Dean's breakfast sandwiches but haven't found that anyone has done these. Have you tried them?
Hi Pam I was looking for the link for the waffle maker and didn't see it in your Amazon pages of goodies. Maybe I missed it but I'm wondering if you could link it here? Thanks!
Oooh! This looks like a winner, especially when you mentioned the idea of shredding the cheese & dicing the ham. I immediately thought of ham & Gruyere & that I’d probably get a little of that cheese frico where the cheese hits the waffle plate. Yum 😋
when you have to crack several eggs just practice in a small bowl one at a time.. you will get the hang of it quickly. it's easy to learn. with thumb and 2 fingers hold the egg and with the other 2 fingers pull the egg apart. crack the egg first while holding. when I used to cook professionally I could do 2 eggs at time in both hands
Put the egg in the hand wrap your fingers around egg extend pointer finger and thumb crack egg on surface and use thumb and pointer like pinchers works every time😂😂
Those look delicious and very handy!! We raise fresh eggs. I have to drop one by one into a little tiny bowl, I’ve gotten “bad” eggs before. It sure wastes a lot of ingredients if you get a bad egg. If you’re using fresh eggs, please do that. 🫤

Double up a damp paper towel and press in the iron to steam cleam .

For an at-home brunch, a fried or poached egg and hollandaise sauce would be yummy over these!
Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
Waffles Benedict !
Genius! Another idea is cheese powder in the batter

LOL! Yes, we keep thinking of additional ideas as well! So glad you liked it.
lol. I love your name tuckabuckaway!
I have that waffle iron on my wish list. I think I’d like to add a little dry mustard in the batter to give it a little zing with the ham and cheese. They all sound delicious!
I love your chiefs name. It gave me a chuckle this morning. 😂
I made these together. My husband and my daughter got excited! My daughter is a nurse and will be using these for easy and quick lunches. Thanks for a great idea and yes, I did buy that waffle maker! Happy Mother’s Day to me!😍🤣
I think I’d add a little mustard between layers of cheese and ham for flavor.
I do love a waffle. I would never have thought of doing this, but it is an excellent idea. I was thinking some cream cheese would be great inside...like a cheesecake waffle. Lol
Wow, great recipe! Never think of using my waffle maker for sandwiches. So easy and fun. Than you!❤
You are so welcome!
This recipe sounds like a winner. Thank You 😊
I am absolutely making these! My son plays soccer and I always pack our supper, but sandwiches are boring. Waffles are his favorite so I'm betting he will love this! 😊❤
My mom used to make waffles with chicken or turkey and gravy! Delicious!

Great idea! Got my thinking machine going. Lol. I'm thinking of Monte Cristo style waffle sandwiches with raspberry sauce. Oh, the possibilities!
Go for it! So many possibilities!
Yum
Just a shame this is discontinued or not currently being made!!! I need a new waffle iron! 😮
I am not a fan of waffles but I am going to experiment with the new UA-cam craze on Chaffles, that is egg + cheese waffles. Thanks for the new ideas.
We’re gonna try making chile relleno. Dice up the chili’s and grate the cheese. I make a casserole usually but this seems like a great alternative! Thanks!

Back in the 1970s my friend's mom would make us waffles with cubed Velveta folded in the batter. I thought she was a genius! ☺ 😋
My watch and 2 IPads just set their timers…
Great video and wonderful recipe.
My watch did too!
More fantastic ideas! I never would have thought of this. Great for traveling and camping. Thank you.
Guess what I just made? These waffles with cheese and pepperoni! Oh, my goodness!
Try frying meat,hashbrowns, eggs,vegetables, eggs.Do that in between,delicious.
Thank you. These look so good.
Well done.. Lochness Scottish Highlands..
This is pretty great! Your video about when you got that waffle iron inspired me to finally get a waffle iron after many years of debating it with myself, and I've been collecting savory-waffle ideas. 😂 I'll definitely try this. I couldn't find the waffle iron that you have but found another that I really like. Cooks consistently, cleans easily, stows away nicely.
Bravo, what a show, waiting for the cast iron demo. Quick do and serve-gives fast food a new meaning!
Pam, how about staggering the cheese by putting the first on the left and the second one on the other side, it would be more even that way I would think.
But this is an awesome idea and maybe I will invest in o waffle iron. I have never had one,

I bet those would be good with crumbled bacon in them instead of ham. Never thought to make waffles savory.
When I was growing up my Mom would make chocolate waffles with ice cream about 3 times a year for dinner.
Sadly, my husband isn't a fan of breakfast waffles. I really do think he would like this idea? Before I invest in a waffle iron, i may borrow one first? We don't like eating out, and this would be perfect for long trips to town! Thank you for all your clever inspiring ideas! ❤😊
The little waffle maker costs about $10 dollars and I make waffles for myself and freeze them. I make savory waffles with cheese or chaffles 😊
YUM! What a GREAT idea!
Hey Siri, make me a waffle!
What an awesome idea!
Dang, I just made waffles for an easy freezer meal. Should have watched you first!
I'm looking forward to trying this!. Thanks again to both of you ❤
You are welcome.
I just took the poundcake out of the oven, and this pops up! Now, I need to make these, lol. I think I will use pantry items for filling. Canned ham diced and freeze dried cheese (reconstituted).
Sounds great!
Great idea. Pam I have bee🎉 watching your bread making videos. For just standard bread can I use the stretch and fold method rather than kneading. I recently had a stroke and lost my right hand and need something a bit easier
I do all of my bread in my kitchen side. Just knead, let rise in an oiled bowl. When double I place in a loaf pan
I wonder if you couldn't mix cubed ham and shredded cheese in the batter instead of the slices? Thanks for the video! Great idea!
You two are so inspiring! I like ham and cheese but I love hot sausage. I wonder if i can cook up sausage and crumble and drain it and use that in the waffle?
I’m definitely going to try this!
Great!
You look very lovely today Pam.
I am going to try this, and add Dijon mustard on top of the last slice of cheese, before pouring on the final quarter cup of batter. Like you said, endless variations. Thank you!
Great idea!
Such good ideas!!
Looks yummy!
Great ideas in the comments. I'll bet you can use quick bread mixes too. And what about cornbread?!
Cake mixes for a desert walffee scoop ice cream or hot fudge ore Carmel drizzled , canned apple pie or cherry pie fast desert some one show up great with coffee or tea hot coco
Oh wow - I have GOT to get me one of those waffle makers. I have been wanting one for a long time and that one looks perfect and easy to clean!! Great idea on the sandwiches!!
Thank you. It really worked great for these!
Try a brownie or cake batter for dessert!!
Love your idea, I have been looking at waffle makers for a couple of months. Will be saving up for this one.
I have already looked at a couple of recipes! Thanks.
For kids add spinach powder and call them hulk walffees , carrots gold treasure, beets or blue berry powder, give them fancy names to get more veggies in them add little protein powder, add a little ovalteen, powder lots of vitamins good things.
Great idea!
Im in Fla I reheat foods like this on the dashboard or engine.
Fantastic idea! Pam you are a genius
I love the idea! Thank you
Yummy 🤤
Neat idea!
Thank you for the video. Pam, I wondered why you didn't have your cheese/ham/cheese in stacks waiting to go? It would save quite a bit of time, and give that top waffle a better brown. Just curious.
Great idea💕
Thank you! 😊
looks so good and so easy.
Tyfs
If you can only have 1 off grid item to cook on the trail, what would it be??? Solar oven, gas stove, rocket stove, ketty ... , etc... ???
Just wondering where to spend the $$...
I would like to know as well
Me too.
What kind of waffle Maker, was it?
I would like to know what the brand was.
I love to cook egg whites on my waffle maker.
Pam - I am going to dig into my pie iron recipes for this!! Yummo BTW how much buttermilk powder did you use?
Such a fun idea
Thank you.
What a wonderful, travel-ready, waffle idea! Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Prof Pam⚘️
You just made a form of my chaffle.( l learned on KETO) ..cheese and an egg, mixed-- chaffles
I enjoy these...
Blessings ❤
#teamcantrell
Wonderful!
I was thinking "Chaffle" too as I watched this video. I want to look for that waffle maker though. It looks very well designed.
Great idea!!
This is the first video of yours that I have watched. Thank you so very much for it! I"m just curious: what state are you in? It looks like the desert SW; I've lived in AZ, NM, and TX.
Thank you for this great idea. What make & model is your new waffle maker?
Here is the link: amzn.to/3vlFlzk
can you freeze dry these? looking for breakfast foods. thought of the jimmy Dean's breakfast sandwiches but haven't found that anyone has done these. Have you tried them?
I have ckd and I can’t eat the cheese and ham, what other ingredients would be easy to do?
Did you use fresh milled flour? That is what I use. I really liked this presentstion.
Hi Pam I was looking for the link for the waffle maker and didn't see it in your Amazon pages of goodies. Maybe I missed it but I'm wondering if you could link it here? Thanks!
Here it is: Calphalon Belgian Waffle Maker with Ceramic Plates amzn.to/3vlFlzk
My Siri just set a timer 😂
😂
Nice 👍🏼
You are welcome!

I will work on that! Thanks.
Do you freeze dry your own Buttermilk, or buy it!
do same only add grated cheese then close lid oh man
😂
If you put boiling water in your FD yogurt to hydrate it, will you kill the cultures in the yogurt? Love your waffle maker.
Probably, but I could not get my FD yogurt to culture a fresh batch, so they may already have been killed by the freeze drying.
Put the egg in the hand wrap your fingers around egg extend pointer finger and thumb crack egg on surface and use thumb and pointer like pinchers works every time😂😂
Thank you! I have got to try this!!!
I thought at first you were wearing sticky notes for efficiency :)
LOL!
Are they soggy when defrosted?
No! They freeze well, stay crispy, and work great to warm up in the toaster.
Those look delicious and very handy!!
We raise fresh eggs. I have to drop one by one into a little tiny bowl, I’ve gotten “bad” eggs before. It sure wastes a lot of ingredients if you get a bad egg. If you’re using fresh eggs, please do that. 🫤
What a delicious idea!
