I try to make it semi healthy. We always have something green on our plates, some form of protein, a carb, and a smoothie with more greens, more protein, and fruit.
I put Maca Powder in our chocolate chip waffles this morning. It has more calcium than milk does. It's nice to know that this meal will fill up our boy's bellies. Isaak has basketball games on Saturdays, so he needs more protein added to his diet.
Waffles:
- 2 Cups of Whole Wheat, All Purpose, or Bread Flour
- 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1 Tablespoon Maca Powder
- 2 Tablespoons Coconut Sugar or Brown Sugar
- 2 Mashed Bananas
- 1 1/2 Teaspoons Vanilla
- 6 Tablespoons Coconut Oil (Melted)
- 1 2/3 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk, Cashew Milk, or Cow's Milk
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1/2 Cup Dark Chocolate Chips
About Organinka Maca Powder:
- It's organic!
- It's non GMO!
- It's a superfood!
- It's from a herbaceous plant native to the high Andean Mountains of Peru.
- Because it's from a plant I was expecting it to be green, but the powder is actually a tan color.
- It's comes with 16 ounces in the bag. I do wish the bag was a bit smaller to reduce packaging. The bag is bigger than the powder it holds.
- It's $12.99, which is a great price.
- It's versatile! You can add it to any bread product, smoothie, hot or cold cereal, and many desserts.
- It's on Amazon Prime, so if you're a Prime Member you get free shipping: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076B2NY6M.

I haven't tried Maca Powder powder yet, but have been meaning to. I like that you can mix it into your waffle mix. I have issues with drinking stuff like this, but no problem eating it if it's cooked in.
Ha ha ha
Just realized a few weeks ago that I don't have a waffle maker. Thanks for the reminder that I need to go get one ;)
