MAPLE SAUSAGE AND WAFFLE CASSEROLE
I found this recipe in Cook's Country magazine. They did a taste test on frozen waffles and it turned out that EGGO Homestyle waffles were the best out of eight brands that they tasted. Depending on the size and shape of your waffles, you will need 6 to 8. Don't use Belgian style because they are too thick for this recipe. You can double the recipe and use a 9 X 13-inch baking dish. Time does not include refrigerating one hour or overnight.

- Don't skimp on the maple syrup: Maple syrup is what gives this casserole its signature flavor. Use a generous amount of syrup, and don't be afraid to add more to taste.
- Serve the casserole hot: This casserole is best served hot out of the oven. Top it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for a truly decadent treat.
