These waffles are very filling and full of protein. It tastes like there’s no way this could be healthy, but it is. This meal isn’t super low in calories but I have had success with it as part of a fat reduction muscle building program.

When I have this for breakfast I either plan in a good workout or make my mid-morning snack a little smaller. For example I had this for breakfast and had a Fiberwise drink (30 calories and very filling) with protein hot chocolate 78 calories and 14 grams of protein (My protein hot cocoa is just a packet of Swiss Miss diet hot chocolate and a scoop of THM collagen.)
