Eat a delicious breakfast and get your daily dose of healthy vegetables too, with this amazing recipe for Paleo Sweet Potato Waffles. They are the best!
I love summer vacations. Mathlete and I got to go to California for a week in July and it was amazing. We were visiting wine country so there was lots of wine tasting and TONS of amazing food. I definitely did not focus on eating paleo at all. I just ate whatever I wanted whenever I wanted.
Of course, my waistline is paying for that now so I am trying to focus on healthier eating. Breakfast is typically my most difficult meal but I have fallen in love with these Paleo Sweet Potato Waffles!
Sweet potatoes are one of those wonderful vegetables that you can use in savory dishes (like these southwestern waffles) or things that you want to be a little sweeter. I love how they work in these super easy waffles.
So I always bake a few sweet potatoes on the weekend so I can have them around for meals throughout the week. It is great to be able to mix up waffles with the puree as I want. Or, just dice them and use them in salads. They really are so versatile.
For these sweet potato waffles paleo, I typically use maple syrup as my topping. Of course, even though they are paleo, Mathlete insists on butter too.
