Valentine’s Day Pink Pitaya Waffles {vegan + gluten & oil-free} sweetsimplevegan.comI created for you all a Valentine's Day Pink Pitaya Waffle recipe that you all are going to LOVE -- not just cause they are delicious, but come on, how cute are they? AND not only is this perfect for the holiday, it is perfect for kids, too! As some of you may know from my Instagram and YouTube, I have recently had a problem with my external hard drive. Well, I should say currently, because the issue is it yet resolved :/

Anyways, I am telling you this because this Pink Pitaya Waffle recipe would not have been born had that not happened. Two weeks ago I shot an oil free fudge recipe to be shared today in time for Valentine's Day (it will still be released at some point, I promise), and I was so pumped to do so. Since the files from that shoot and video are not accessible at the moment, I decided to create another recipe for you because with the and possibility that I recover my data (crossing my fingers and toes), why not cook up a brand new recipe?

So everything happens for a reason right? Scratch that. Everything happens for waffles, right?
