I have been researching paleo recipes and came up with this edited version for Protein Power Waffles of my own. I love big breakfasts on the weekend with my family… but I try to teach the family to keep it clean. So this is the best of both worlds. Although I am a ‘dash of this and a dash of that’ kind of cook, I did manage to get an exact recipe for the most yummy power waffles. You can make with or without the frozen blueberries. I used them and found it added some moisture and even more deliciousness to the powerFUEL breakfast! I have even used the waffles to eat as a pre-workout snack to fuel me through a tough workout. Waffles with a power punch! Eat 30 minutes before working out. Another tip is that I do when I make these is I double the recipe and freeze the leftovers. Enjoy!
