Method

Waffle Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Macaroni

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare Cheese Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and cream cheese. Stir until melted and smooth. Add milk and mix well. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Mix Waffle Batter

    In a large bowl, combine cooked macaroni, melted cheese mixture, egg, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Preheat Waffle Iron

    Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  5. 5

BBQ Tofu Preparation

    Wrap the firm tofu in a clean kitchen towel and place a heavy object on top to drain excess moisture for about 15-20 minutes.

    Cut the pressed tofu into small cubes. In a skillet over medium heat, add the tofu and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Pour Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce over the tofu and continue cooking for another 5 minutes until well-coated and heated through.
