Let’s make some protein waffles for breakfast!
I know that people say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. That isn’t necessarily true, but that doesn’t mean that you should skimp out on your breakfast!
By packing your breakfast full of healthy proteins and fats, you’ll stay more satiated and less HANGRY throughout your day. I can’t say the same for all of the sugar-packed box mixes out there.
Another bonus for this recipe? It’s single serving. If you’re making waffles for more than one, just double all the ingredients and be sure to fill your waffle maker in two batches.
I love starting out my day with a plate like this — protein-packed waffles, some frozen berries for sweetness, nut butter for extra fat, and a sprinkle of pepitas for crunch!
And I always make sure to use high quality protein when I choose to use protein powders – specifically Organifi’s Delicious Vanilla Protein. It’s vegan, gluten-free, soy-free, and organic – you can’t ask for more than that! They even include a digestive enzyme blend to make sure your gut loves it, too.
And the best part? It tastes good. Not chalky and gross like other protein powders on the market.
Whip up a batch of these protein waffles the next time you’re craving something sweet for breakfast! I promise you won’t regret it.
