Rise and Shine Saturday Skinny Waffles!

I don't know about you, but I love breakfast. I woke up this morning craving waffles! Although sadly, when I think of waffles, I think of tons of calories. Since it is a Saturday morning I thought why not get creative and set out to make the healthiest waffles I could think of. So I rolled out of bed and set out to create not only healthy but delicious waffles using egg whites, wheat or buckwheat flour, unsweetened almond milk, and stevia. I must say it was a huge success! Thanks to Egg Beaters and my alteration ideas!


I am so glad I did this... These are the YUMMIEST Waffles I have EVER had. So put down the generic 'just add water' waffle shakers. Do your health and your loved ones a favor by doing these simple alterations. Enjoy!
