Break out of breakfast boredom and try sprucing up your breakfast with this Avocado (Waffle) Toast that will gear you up for the day ahead.
I love breakfast. I love food. I love breakfast food. I was excited to see this month’s Recipe ReDux‘s theme was to “break out of breakfast boredom”. I’ve been cooking up a lot of breakfast recipes here lately, well because I love breakfast!
I just don’t understand how people skip breakfast in the morning. Come on people, breakfast food is the best! I just love the versatility of breakfast. You can go either sweet or savory and it’s one of the easiest meals where all food groups can perfectly fit.
For me, breakfast is best when it has the perfect balance, both nutritionally and flavor-wise. I like to practice what I preach and aim for at least 3 food groups per meal, one food group being a fruit or vegetable. This avocado (waffle) toast is packed with lean protein, whole grains, healthy fats, and fiber.
But let’s get real, this kind of breakfast is not always on the regular, especially on the mornings where I am running out the door sipping on my coffee in my travel mug on my commute. Don’t worry, I have plenty of other breakfast options that might work too!
Protein Pancakes (these taste delicious reheated too!)
2 minute (microwave) Oatmeal Muffin (single serving!)
Tropical Wild Blueberry Smoothie (perfect for on the go!)
Frozen Single Serve Pumpkin Steel Cut Oatmeal (make ahead recipe!)
Swiss Chard and Mushroom Quiche (make ahead recipe!)
Protein Smoothie (without using protein powder!)
The Best Overnight Oatmeal (make ahead recipe!)

Avocado at breakfast=I’m sold! These look so good!
The best of both worlds! Yes, I could never skip breakfast (or any meal willingly for that matter – ha 😉
seriously .. when people tell me they haven’t eaten all day .. I’m just questioning HOW? don’t you get hungry!?
Breakfast is seriously the best and this is such a fun way to mix things up!
I’m with you! I wake up excited for breakfast..it’s what gets me out of bed haha. You can’t go wrong when avocado and egg are involved. Throw waffles into the mix? I’m sold!
Such a great idea to use a waffle instead of toast!
LOVE this take on the avocado toast. Who doesn’t love waffles?? I am seriously craving this now – thanks 🙂
How creative! I am such a waffle (not pancake) girl, and I love avocado toast, so these are right up my alley!
You are a food blogger after my own heart. I could eat an avocado toast every morning. So I love your fun twist on a whole grain waffle. Brilliant. Pinning now 🙂
So many of my patients don’t eat breakfast. They all say they are not hungry. If I don’t eat with in an hour of waking up I don’t feel well. Never skip breakfast!
