Vegetarian Recipe
By Fitness and Freebies
Delicious citrus orange flavored waffles where you dissolve the yeast in freshly squeezed, warmed orange juice.
Recipe Ingredients
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice, warmed (about 120 degrees)
1/2 cup lowfat soy milk, at room temperature
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon orange oil or 1 tablespoon grated orange rind
1/2 teaspoon salt
2-1/4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Recipe Directions
Dissolve yeast in warm orange juice and let sit for 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and stir well for several minutes. Let batter rest, covered, in a warm spot for 30 minutes.
Heat waffle iron, pour in the appropriate amount of batter for your specific model, and spread to the edges of the waffle iron. Close and cook until gently browned.
Note: This batter burns easily; so set your waffle iron on a low setting. If your waffle iron doesn't have a temperature setting, peek to see if the waffles are done when the waffle maker opens easily.

Vegetarian Fact:
Fresh herbs can elevate an ordinary dish into one that is extraordinary. A sprinkling of fresh minced parsley, basil, tarragon, or chives can brighten a salad, grain, or vegetable dish or use thyme, oregano, or sage for soups, stews, and stuffings.
