morning!
i slept so well last night – it was such a joy to sleep past 6:30 for the first time in a while!
i woke up not being able to decide between a waffle stack and oatmeal…but the waffles won out.
don’t they always?
i topped two toasted kashi 7-grain waffles with sunflower seed butter, a mix of 0% plain and the very last of my vanilla chobani then defrosted some frozen peaches and strawberry slices to add to each of the layers.
waffle stacks just aren’t the same without chia seeds mixed into the yogurt…they just make it so thick! plus the extra boost of fiber and omega-3’s they provide isn’t so bad either
On the side, as always, was a festive mug of coffee + soymilk
i have to head into campus for a bit today to get some things done (and use the gym!) but i’m not sure when that will be. i guess i’ll see how the rest of the morning goes and take things from there.
happy thursday people!

Happy Thursday to YOU. Now I need go go make some waffles. You’re right…they always win.
Cait says
Haha, don’t they just?! Have a good day my friend 🙂

When you mix yogurt and chia for a waffle stack how much of each do you use? And is it greek yogurt or traditional?
Cait says
I use about 1 tbsp. of chia seeds and for the yogurt I don’t usually measure. It varies probably from 1/4 cup – 1/2 cup though. It’s greek yogurt – I find it tends to work better because it’s thicker than regular yogurt. 🙂

Waffles are always such a nice change from the normal oatmeal bowls. Looks fab!
Cait says
Agreed! 🙂 Especially waffles with nut butter, fruit and yogurt!

Waffles alllllwayyyyys win :). Something about ’em. They’re just better than anything else!
Cait says
Seriously…what do they put in them to make them so good?!

I’ve been missing toaster waffles so I got a box of Van’s earlier this week and cannot stop eating them 😛 I’ve never tried chia seeds in my yogurt, thanks for the tip! And super cute festive dishes!
Cait says
Definitely give the chia seeds a try – it makes it so thick! And yay for toaster waffles – THE BEST!
