These fluffy & protein-packed Double Blueberry Greek Yogurt Waffles are a tasty & filling way to start your day.


This dairy packed recipe was created in partnership with the ADA Mideast. As always, all thoughts & opinions expressed below are 100% my own.






Back to school is just around the corner, & I am sure that most of you all are in full-on prep for the new school year. I know that we are. 





We have been picking up school supplies at the store, doing a little clothes shopping, & making sure all the paperwork is in order for my daughter to start second grade. We have been checking off our back to school to-do list & then checking it twice. 





But did you know that one of the single most important things that we, as parents, can do to make sure our kiddos are ready for school each morning is to ensure that they are eating a healthy, filling breakfast? And one of the best (& easiest!) ways to do that is to make sure to include dairy in their daily breakfast.





In fact, dairy foods happen to be one of the most budget friendly ways to add more protein to your kiddo's breakfast. And more protein means your child will stay feeling fuller longer, which in turn improves their concentration during class. 





Just one serving of milk, yogurt, or cheese includes 8 grams of high quality protein & 9 essential nutrients.





One of my daughter's favorite breakfast foods happens to waffles. This girl would eat waffles every single morning if she could. 





So, I decided to take her most requested breakfast dish & give it a dairy & protein boost by using Greek yogurt instead of oil in the waffle batter. The results? Perfectly fluffy waffles bursting with fresh blueberry flavor! (And also a very happy & full second grader... )
