I often feel like the discard from my sourdough starter is wasteful, so I try my best to use it in other ways. One of the best and tastiest ways is to repurpose the discard into waffles. You can make the batter base of this recipe the night before you plan to cook waffles, or just a few hours prior. This is a fantastic weekend breakfast when everyone gets to sleep in!

Tex-Mex Pork Chops and Rice Skillet
Brown some chops, then add vegetables, broth and rice. This dinner only needs one skillet, a knife, a cutting board, some measuring cups and spoons, a can opener, and a mixing and serving spoon. We like this with simple quesadillas and a salad. Add some avocado slices, if you like!
No Mayo Deviled Eggs
I always make deviled eggs to use up dyed hardboiled eggs from Easter, but many family and friends hate the mayo taste and texture. I tried an avocado base and it made the best deviled eggs anyone had tasted. You just can't be afraid of green eggs and ham.
