The best part of breakfast is eating it any time of the day! The combination of crispy buttermilk waffles, ham, cheese, and a sweet jam make this Buttermilk Waffle Monte Cristo recipe perfect for breakfast, lunch or even dinner.
Since breakfast is always on our mind, we thought it was the perfect time to share one of our favorite remixes with you. Let us introduce you to this epic Buttermilk Waffle Monte Cristo.
If you’re not familiar with the Monte Cristo, it is traditionally made with a filling of ham, turkey, and cheese. Then it is dipped in batter and deep fried. Although we love the traditional version, they are are not our jam. (Pun intended)
Instead, we have remade the traditional recipe into something healthier with a breakfast twist thanks to our buttermilk waffles and some raspberry jam for sweetness. We removed the batter and deep frying and swapped it for baking to give the outside the same crunch as a traditional Monte Cristo.
We opted to use our Buttermilk Waffles in this recipe, but our Blueberry Waffles would be just as lovely! You could also you another flavor jam and swap the ham with turkey if that’s more appetizing.
Lastly, we listed the powdered sugar as optional, which it is. However, it is something we would highly recommend to make it feel a little bit more like the traditional version. It might make more sense to save that for serving this at Sunday brunch, but truth be told, we have prepared this and taken it to work – powdered sugar and all.
For our vegetarian friends out there, you can easily swap the ham for your favorite vegetarian meat alternative. Or, forgo it altogether and use extra cheese instead. And for a Thanksgiving twist, swap the ham for some leftover turkey and cranberry sauce! *chefs kiss*

Satisfy your morning sweet tooth with these Dark Chocolate Waffle Dippers! Our Buttermilk waffles are baked until golden and then dipped in heart-healthy dark chocolate for a fun twist on breakfast!
We are always trying to make eating more fun around here. We can’t think of too many things that are more fun than eating with your fingers. Or eating anything that involves chocolate. This is where our easy buttermilk waffle dipper recipe comes into play.
You might think this recipe is meant only for breakfast since waffles are involved, but we are fans of eating these waffle dippers for dinner and dessert, too! Have you heard of brinner? It’s when you eat ‘breakfast for dinner’ and comes in handy on busy nights.
Our Buttermilk Waffles toast up in a matter of minutes. All you need to do is slice the frozen waffles into thirds, toast them according to package directions, and then serve with your dipping sauce of choice. In this case, we went with melted dark chocolate for something a little indulgent. However, you could also serve them with maple syrup, honey-sweetened yogurt, dripping peanut butter, or a combination.
We added crushed nuts for a little crunch, but sprinkles for the kids, chocolate chips or mini m&m’s would all be fun! Heck, this is another recipe that a “build your own” waffle dipper bar would be so fun! Just imagine how much fun the kids would have at breakfast after a sleepover!
But, these aren’t just for kids. As adults, we love them too! We might even go so far as to say that they are our latest breakfast obsession. They seem to make mealtime a little bit ‘sweeter.’

All of the crowd-pleasing favorites of a B.L.T sandwich in a light and easy salad made with 2-minute egg white patties.
A good BLT sandwich is one of the best things about summer. Fresh garden tomatoes, crisp bacon, creamy avocado…..heaven! But, when you scrap the bread, there isn’t much left to enjoy. That’s why we added in some extra goodies to give this Egg White Patty BLT Salad more staying power!
Our 2-minute egg white patties add an extra kick of protein! 12g-18g to be exact! We also added some crumbled blue cheese for a tang of flavor and a little bit more fat for satiation. When removing a macronutrient like carbohydrates from the bread, it is important to include extra fat. The extra fat is the key to not feeling hungry in an hour.
To prepare this keto salad, cook your egg white patties according to package directions, chop your lettuce, slice your tomatoes, avocado and crumble your bacon. Once the egg white patties are cooked, slice them and place all ingredients on top of your chopped lettuce. Then it’s time to dig in!
If you aren’t following a keto or low-carb diet, serve with a slice or two of your favorite toasted bread topped with a touch of butter or ghee.
This easy recipe works great for a fast lunch or dinner, but would also hold up well for meal prep. If you want to get really true to your favorite BLT flavors, you could opt for a mayo-based salad dressing, although we don’t feel like it’s needed with all of the great flavors happening! Simple ingredients, extreme flavor!

Pancake puffs aren’t just for breakfast! Top them with melted dark chocolate, fresh summer fruit, and whipped cream to make a fabulous dessert!
It may seem a little odd to think about serving ice cream for breakfast, but as parents with picky kids, sometimes we need to step outside of our comfort zone and let them indulge! And if you think this is too much, you can always swap the ice cream for your favorite yogurt! It will still feel just like a sundae, promise!
If you’ve been around here for a while then you know we have quite the love for pancake puffs and waffles! Yes, this recipe would also be just as delicious with waffles, too! More often than not, we opt for a savory breakfast, but when we are craving something sweet (or the kids want a treat) this pancake ice cream sundae is the way to go! You will score bonus points for serving this!
We are all about “build your own meals” because it allows the kids to get creative with what they eat and feel like they are the ones making the decision. Sneaky, huh?
So, to create a breakfast sundae bar like this, you will need 1-2 bags of our pancake puffs as the base and can then run wild with the rest of the toppings. As mentioned above, you could swap the ice cream for a healthier breakfast option like yogurt, serve a variety of fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, mini chocolate chips, whipped cream, etc.! Let your imagination run wild!
This recipe also works as a healthier (and fun) alternative at birthday parties or sleepovers, too! Whether this is served to kids or adults, it is a guaranteed way to bring a smile to anyone’s face.

Layers of toasty bread, melted cheese, fresh spinach, high-protein egg white patties, bacon, and a big slathering of pesto. This easy to make breakfast sandwich has it all!
Let’s not forget to talk about the 24.1g of protein that is in this sandwich, too! That’s the equivalent of eating just an everyday piece of chicken (boring!). Starting your day with a balance of fiber-rich carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats are the key to staying satisfied until lunch. Yup, you won’t find your hand in the candy jar at 10:30 am after eating this for breakfast.

The great thing about this combination is that it also works well for lunch or dinner, too! Some air fryer sweet potato slices are the perfect compliment! Serve with extra pesto or ketchup for dipping, and you have a complete meal ready in less than 20 minutes.

With a few simple ingredients, this Healthy Strawberry Oatmeal Parfait comes together in minutes making a fast and delicious way to start your day. A great option for a delicious gluten free breakfast.
Overnight oats? Sorta, but not really. You see, traditional overnight oats are made with rolled oats and milk. You place them in a jar together, and the oats soften overnight. But, to us, the end result is more like a paste. It’s a texture that we just can’t get around.
This healthy strawberry parfait is the solution to not having pasty overnight oats. It gives you the grab-n-go convenience of overnight oats, but with a much heartier texture. We used our steel-cut oatmeal in this, so you get the texture and flavor of long, slow-cooked oats, but with a speedier pace!
If you are making one jar for breakfast, we recommend cooking up 1 whole package of oatmeal for each jar. If you are making a snack, then we would recommend half a serving per jar.
One of the best parts of creating a parfait or overnight oats is the layers of textures and flavors! There are so many fun and delicious combinations to keep your taste buds from getting bored. In this parfait recipe, we layered in creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, and fresh fruit for sweetness!
Other yummy options would be replacing the granola with chocolate chips, switching up the fruit and using mango and coconut for a tropical flavor, or even layering in a few pieces of leftover brownie for a sweet little dessert. The kids would have a ball creating their own layers and combinations for a snack.
But, the best part is that you can prepare all of these in advance and have a healthy and satisfying option ready to get every morning. Long are the days when you will have an excuse not to eat breakfast.

This Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal recipe is an easy, healthy breakfast recipe that is loaded with apples, pecans, maple syrup, and fall spices. Gluten free and dairy free, plus meal prep breakfast friendly!
It’s no secret that we love oatmeal around here. Oatmeal is a fast, hearty, and satisfying way to start the day. Plus, the combinations are endless! The one thing that we can guarantee is that you will never get bored eating oatmeal.
Now that the days are shorter, darker, and colder, we are craving all of the warm meals and fall flavors. Who wouldn’t love a breakfast that tasted like apple pie?
You can make a single serving of this Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal, or you can make a big match for meal prep. Although our preference is to enjoy this warm, it is just as good chilled, too!
This recipe is naturally gluten free, dairy-free, and vegan. But, don’t let this combination stop you! You can add in any of your favorite fall fruits, nuts, seeds, nut butter, etc. You can also replace the maple syrup with honey, stevia, or monk fruit.
If you are looking to add some additional protein, a scoop of protein powder, collagen powder, or even a dollop of Greek yogurt (not dairy-free or vegan) would be an excellent addition. The protein and collagen powders will also make the oats even thicker. You know, that “stick to your ribs” kinda feeling.
Other nutrient dense add-ins would be flax seeds, chia seeds, or hemp seeds. These will help increase the fiber content and make the oatmeal even more satiating. Like the protein and collagen powder, the flax and chia seeds will also make the oatmeal extra thick!
If you are trying to reduce your sugar, feel free to leave out the maple syrup and use one of the low glycemic sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit listed above.
No matter what you add in, we guarantee that this will be one of the coziest bowls of oatmeal you eat all season!

Pancake puffs served on top of greek yogurt, a split banana and finished off with chocolate, fruit, sprinkles, and honey. A healthy spin on dessert pancakes!
Are you ready to flip your traditional savory breakfast and give this sweet, almost dessert-like pancake puff banana split a try? We thought so! Who doesn’t love a good sweet start to the day?
Although we usually gravitate towards something savory, we do love a good plate of waffles, bowl of oatmeal, or pancake puff recipe! Dare we say that the pancake puffs might even be our favorite of the three? They just slightly outrank our oatmeal combos that are also pretty much like dessert.
Since our pancake puff ice cream sundae bowls were such a hit, we figured we would create a new spin that would be a bit more in line with breakfast. We must admit, the result was pretty sweet! (pun intended)
We swapped the traditional banana split ice cream for a high-protein Greek yogurt, then we added a banana because you can’t very well have a banana split without the banana! Then we added our pancake puffs, some fresh berries, cherries, mini chocolate chips (totally breakfast friendly, right?), sprinkles and a drizzle of honey for sweetness!
This is the perfect balance of protein and carbs to set you up for a long day! Or, you could serve this as a sweet ending to a long, tiring day. Nothing says happiness and comfort more than a banana split — in any form.
Get the kids involved in making them too! Let them help you create a ‘build your own’ pancake puff banana split bar by picking out the toppings and creating their favorite combo. We guarantee they won’t even know these are healthy-ish!

Ever wonder how to make a high protein turkey club? These easy turkey clubs are low carb, gluten free, and keto friendly. Swap the bread for lettuce and add in egg white patties for an extra boost of protein.
Nothing beats a thick, ‘can’t wrap your mouth around it’ turkey club. However, sometimes, all those layers of bread start to feel too heavy in the summer heat. So, we decided to jump on the lettuce wrap trend that we have seen around social media. Our version is the next level, though.
We took the standard one or two layers of lettuce and use a half a small head as the buns. Next, we added our egg white patties to amp up the protein. Sliced turkey breast + egg white patties = ~24g of protein, which is the recommended amount per meal.
Then we added in the traditional items like tomato and bacon. Lastly, we finished it off with an amount of guacamole that will send you to the moon and back. Just kidding, but it is guaranteed to keep you satisfied for hours! When you skip out on the carbs, it is essential to make sure that you have extra fat to keep you satiated. We wish we could say that protein alone would be enough to sustain you, but unfortunately, it’s not. The fat + protein combination is the key to low carb staying power.
If you aren’t following a keto or low carb diet, pair this with some fresh fruit, heck, or even some chips! After all, life is all about balance, right?
