Let’s talk protein at breakfast! One of the most common problems I see with my clients’ diets (especially the women)- is low protein. Whether you’re working on healing your gut, building muscle, balancing blood sugar, or trying to improve your energy levels… it doesn’t matter- protein is the key!
If you’re not sure where to start- breakfast is a great place. Most people should aim for at least 20 grams of protein at breakfast. These protein rich waffles are a great option to meet this goal. I have been prepping these to store in the freezer. You can just pop them in the toaster whenever you need something quick!
The beauty of these waffles is the amount of mix-ins you can use to make different combinations. Here are some of my favorite mix-ins:
Bananas, Chocolate chips or cacao nibs, Blueberries, Nut butter (especially chocolate hazelnut), Chia seeds
