Fuel Your Weekend: High-Protein Waffle Breakfast Sandwich
May 16, 2025
Weekend mornings call for a hearty, satisfying breakfast that fuels the day ahead. If you’re looking for a high-protein meal that combines delicious flavors and nutritional benefits, this High-Protein Breakfast Sandwich with Nature’s Path Organic Waffles, homemade chicken sausage patties, scrambled eggs, turkey bacon, and a hint of maple syrup is the perfect choice.
This recipe brings together the best of both worlds: the crispy texture of waffles with the savory flavors of sausage, eggs, and bacon. To make it even more satisfying, we add a layer of creamy American cheese and a drizzle of organic maple syrup to tie everything together. It’s the ultimate balance of protein, healthy fats, and a touch of sweetness.
Ingredients:
For the Waffle Sandwich:
- Nature’s Path Organic Waffles (any flavor)
- Organic Ground Chicken (1/2 lb, seasoned with Italian herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper to form sausage patties)
- Applegate Farms Organic Turkey Bacon (2 slices)
- 2 Organic Eggs (scrambled)
- Organic Valley Organic Sliced American Cheese (1 slice)
- Maple Grove Farms Organic Maple Syrup (1 tbsp)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken Sausage Patties:
Shape the ground chicken into small patties. Season with Italian herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the patties until browned and cooked through. This homemade chicken sausage adds lean protein and great flavor to the sandwich. - Cook the Turkey Bacon:
In the same skillet, cook the turkey bacon until crispy. Turkey bacon is a great alternative to traditional bacon, offering a lower-fat option while still delivering that savory flavor. - Make the Scrambled Eggs:
Whisk the organic eggs in a bowl, then pour them into a heated skillet. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then top with a slice of American cheese, allowing it to melt into the eggs for a creamy texture. - Heat the Waffles:
While the eggs are cooking, heat your waffles according to the package instructions. These waffles provide a delicious, protein-packed base. - Assemble the Sandwich:
Once the waffles are ready, begin assembling your sandwich. Place the homemade chicken sausage patty on one waffle, followed by the cheesy scrambled eggs and crispy turkey bacon. Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup over the waffle, adding a touch of sweetness. Top with the second waffle to complete your sandwich.
