(WJBK) - Dads love their bacon and eggs, but maybe this year is the time to switch it up for your Father's Day brunch. Chef Kelli Lewton joined us in the FOX 2 Cooking School to show us how to whip up a waffle bar. She also shared a recipe idea with us that is a take on nachos, which you can find below.
Chef Kelli is from 2 Unique Caterers and Event Planners and Purefood2U. You can find more information at www.twounique.com and www.purefood2u.com.
