Ingredients (Yields 2 servings)

• 1 cup cauliflower rice (fresh or frozen, thawed and squeezed dry)
  
  

• ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  
  

• 2 large eggs
  
  

• 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (optional, for extra fiber)
  
  

• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  
  

• ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  
  

• ¼ teaspoon salt
  
  

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  
  

• 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray (for waffle iron)
  
  

Directions

1. Preheat the Waffle Iron: Lightly grease your waffle iron with olive oil or cooking spray and preheat it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
   
   

2. Prepare the Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, ground flaxseed (if using), garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
   
   

3. Cook the Chaffles: Spoon the cauliflower mixture into the preheated waffle iron, spreading it out evenly. Close the waffle iron and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until the chaffle is golden brown and crispy.
   
   

4. Serve: Carefully remove the chaffle from the waffle iron and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with your choice of toppings.
