Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup cornmeal

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

1 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

8 small breakfast sausages (Turkey, pork, or plant-based)

4 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

Salt and pepper to taste

Chopped chives or green onions (for garnish)

Salsa or hot sauce (optional, for serving)

Instructions
 

Make the Waffle Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the buttermilk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese.

    Cook the Sausages: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausages until browned and fully cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and slice each sausage into halves.

      Preheat the Waffle Maker: Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease with cooking spray or brush with oil.

        Cook the Waffles: Pour a scoop of waffle batter into the waffle maker, spreading it evenly. Cook until golden brown and crispy, typically 3-5 minutes. Repeat this process until all the batter is used, making about 6-8 mini waffles.

          Scramble the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and pour in the egg mixture. Cook gently, stirring frequently, until the eggs are just set and soft, about 2-3 minutes.

            Assemble the Tacos: Take a mini waffle, spoon a portion of scrambled eggs in the middle, and place a couple of sausage halves on top. Fold the waffle over to create a taco shape.

              Garnish and Serve: Top with chopped chives or green onions and serve warm with salsa or hot sauce on the side.
