Protein Packed Waffles (Gluten Free)

March 22, 2024

I asked Tyler what recipe I should share with all of you next and he suggested this one because it’s one of our family’s favorites! Tyler has been making these waffles for years and he eats them almost every morning. He loves them because not only are they super fast and easy to make, but they are really healthy and loaded with protein. And I have to say, for a really healthy waffle, these are pretty darn good! Here are the macros for this recipe which is 4 waffles. 587 calories, 49 grams protein, 23 grams fat, 47 grams carbohydrate For someone who is working out and trying to build muscle, eating 4 of these waffles for breakfast is really great. For someone who is trying to stay lean and eat healthy, eating one or two of these for breakfast is great. Tyler likes to eat these with a little whipped cream and top them with berries. My kids love these and will eat them every time Tyler makes them!

INGREDIENTS

3 eggs
1 egg white
3/4 cups old fashioned oats
3/4 cup cottage cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth. (Batter will be liquidy and not thick).
Preheat waffle iron. Spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour batter into waffle iron and cook until waffles are golden.

NOTES

We make these in a Belgian waffle iron. Tyler likes to preheat the waffle iron, spray the bottom with non-stick cooking spray, pour in the batter, and then let it cook for about 1 minute before spraying top of the waffle iron and closing it to let it finish cooking. This prevents the batter from spilling over when closing the waffle iron. This recipe yields 4 Belgian size waffles. This recipe can be easily doubled or multiplied to make more waffles.

Plum Bread

March 23, 2024

I found this recipe in my mom’s collection of recipes years ago and it immediately piqued my interest. I knew I had to make it! My mom got this recipe from her mom, and my grandma used to make it all of the time back in the 1970s. My mom loved this bread growing up, and now I make it for my family and we love it too!

This bread is so delectably moist and delicious. Whenever plums are in season, you better bet you’ll find me making this recipe. Plums are in season from summer through early fall, so right now is the perfect time to make this bread!

When choosing a plum, hold it in the palm of your hand, it should feel heavy. Make sure to choose ones that aren’t too squishy and overripe. A ripe plum should be firm but have some give when you lightly squeeze it.
