Cat's Healthy Waffles

Ingredients:
8 egg whites (or 2 whole eggs and 4 whites if you hate throwing away yolks like I do) If you buy containers of egg whites - use 1 cup of whites.
1 cup cottage cheese (ff works, but I usually use 1%)
1 cup Bob’s Red Mill 10-grain waffle and pancake mix
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 tsp of Splenda (optional)

Directions:
Blend egg whites, cottage cheese and vanilla in a blender until smooth.
Mix waffle mix and Splenda (if using it) in a bowl.
Pour wet into dry and mix until all wet.

Cook in waffle maker until done - spraying lightly with PAM between each batch. These take a little longer than regular waffles to cook.

Enjoy w/ sugar free syrup, honey, fresh berries, yogurt, cinnamon & sugar, PB or whatever your heart desires! This recipe serves 4.

To store: let cool completely on a wire rack and then freeze in air-tight container (Tupperware, Ziploc bag, etc). Toast lightly to reheat/recrisp.


You can totally make these without the Splenda. I've not tried them using real sugar, but that would probably work too. With the Splenda, they are mildly sweet and good hot out of the waffle iron (without syrup!).
