Pumpkin Waffles

Lindsey bought me a new cookbook for my birthday called The Essential Food Storage Cookbook. I decided to try the Pumpkin Waffles for dinner one night and we loved them!
A new twist on Mom's Waffles! It makes plenty for 4 people. They freeze well.

In a large bowl combine dry ingredients:
2 1/2 c. flour
2 TBS. sugar
1 TBS. baking powder
1 teas. salt
1 teas. cinnamon
1/2 teas. ground ginger
1/4 teas. ground nutmeg

3 eggs, separated

In a separate bowl combine:
3 egg yolks
1 3/4 c. milk
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1/2 c. canned pumpkin

Then add to dry ingredients. Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold into the batter. Cook until golden brown.

Tam's Tortellini Tomato Spinach Soup

Tam made this for us when we were in NM in April. My girls fell in love with it especially Chelsey. I suggested we serve it for our Stake RS Enrichment last October and it was a big hit too!
