Cranberry Greek Yogurt Waffles

I should’ve declared this week “Dad Recipe Week” because this is the third recipe I have shared that came from my Dad. Originally these were made with sour cream, but as you know I like to use Greek yogurt whenever I have the chance so these waffles changes from sour cream waffles to Greek yogurt waffles! And then I found some frozen cranberries in my freezer and decided to toss some of those in as well.

ALso, I have discovered the secret to packing up breakable items: just break them before you pack them and throw them away! I’m not seriously doing this on purpose but I have already broken one pyrex measuring cup and two decorative drinking glasses (there goes two of my smoothie cups for pictures). Guess that’s three less things I have to pack, although sadly those were some of my thicker glass items. Figures.
