This Healthy Chocolate Chip Waffle is reminiscent of a Waffle House favorite. This waffle doesn’t sacrifice on flavor, but it’s much cleaner than its inspiration. Make a bunch to freeze for a quick breakfast!

20 Breakfast Recipes for the Holidays
Everyone seems excited about dinner this week.
You can have my turkey.
I’ve never been a holiday meal person. Giant turkeys, honey baked hams, casseroles, mashed potatoes, that green bean thing with onion straws on top… you can keep it. Don’t touch my dessert though.
No, my favorite part about holidays is the morning after. I’m a breakfast junkie. As such, I thought I’d skip the turkey round up and put together a list of fun breakfast recipes for the family.

What I Ate Without an Oven
I spoke too soon.
One day I’ll learn to knock on wood or something.
Last week I said we were getting to some form of normalcy. HA! Till the flaming oven happened… so here we are with a disheveled kitchen, no oven, and some random food. We also have NO groceries since we were supposed to have gone to the farmer’s market Sunday. Fires really are inconvenient…

Red Velvet Protein Waffles [Recipe]
There are few things I love more than cake.
Actually, I can only think of one…
One of the best things about waffles is that they are like cake… but with crevices for icing sauce.
My favorite cakes include: chocolate, carrot, red velvet, and banana-peanut butter-bacon. In that order. The only thing to do is to make all of these in protein waffle form (in no particular order).

Recovery, Workouts, and Sweet Potato Pie Waffles
Sometimes there’s no shame in staying in bed half the day.
Especially when the last couple of weeks have been chaos!
Last Monday I depicted pre-conference life. This Monday is recovery life. Marvelous recovery. Recovery life started with sleep. Since I couldn’t take pictures of that, we’ll pick up with the wakeful part of the weekend.
Agreed.

Cauliflower Fiesta Waffles
I’ve had lots of bad ideas.
I’m talking about recipes here… 😉
As I was mixing these up I thought “this is either my best or worst [waffle] idea ever.” Turns out, it was the best… in a strange way, of course. 😉
I’ve made a lot of unusual stuff with cauliflower. One of my go-to is this pizza crust. I also rocked some pancakes with this versatile vegetable. So why not a waffle?
I decided on a savory waffle, but you can easily change up the spices to make it sweet. For “brinner,” savory seemed the way to go. It’s a thinner batter, but if you grease the waffle iron liberally it wont stick. I used coconut oil cooking spray.
My veggie toppings were easily prepped while I was making the waffle. I sautéed bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms. It looked like a fiesta!
You could stop with the veggies to keep it vegetarian. I used a little turkey to get more protein, and added a quick sauce made from hummus mixed with hot sauce and a little ACV.
Cauliflower Fiesta Waffles
- 100g cauliflower
- 1 T nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1/4 tsp cayenne
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 6T egg whites
Preheat waffle iron. Place ingredients in a blend or food processor and mix until batter is (mostly) smooth.
Grease iron very well (I used coconut oil). Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions.
Plate and top as desired. While my waffle cooked, I sautéed bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and turkey to use on top. I also sauced my waffle with a mixture of hummus, hot sauce, and a little apple cider vinegar.
