Cheesy Cornbread Waffles

Oh the joys of cooking things in a waffle iron. The possibilities are endless and delicious. Cornbread is great in the waffle iron since it makes it crisp on the outside and nice and fluffy on the inside. What more could you want?

Recipe:
1 box of jiffy cornbread mix (yeah, I cheated again, prepare it as directed)
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 a jalepeno pepper, minced (optional)
1 tsp smoky paprika
Black pepper

In a bowl combine jiffy mix and the things it calls for (I hate milk so I use beer instead) then gently mix in the rest of the ingredients. Feel free to adjust the amounts of things or add other seasonings like garlic powder or chili powder. Pour batter into a liberally greased waffle iron and cook for between 3-4 minutes.

Serve with any of the following:
Tomatoes
Cucumbers
Onions
Cilantro
Vegetarian chili
Black beans
