Whole-Grain Waffles with Cherry Sauce
"Cornmeal adds appealing texture to these waffles, and hot cherry sauce is a tasty, nutrient-rich alternative to maple syrup. Any fine cornmeal works in the recipe. If you want to use whole-grain cornmeal, look for finely ground cornmeal labeled "whole-grain" or "stone-ground" in the natural-foods section of the supermarket or at natural-foods stores...."
