Finding a high protein breakfast can be difficult. At least, finding a tasty, high-protein breakfast can be.
Sure, you could have eggs or a protein shake ... But both of those options can get old pretty quick.
If I could have anything for breakfast everyday, I'd pick waffles. They are just so fluffy, sweet, and delicious! The problem is, you won't find many waffles with the protein necessary to support your health and fitness goals.
With these high-protein waffle recipes, you'll get more than enough protein! Plus, there are 5 diverse and delicious waffle recipes to choose from.
Give these recipes a try and I know you won't regret it! Keep in mind that for these recipes, I used a standard 7" waffle maker. If your waffle maker is different, It could manipulate the serving size and total number of waffles you can make for each recipe.
