I love waffles. That’s all.
I need to explain something. I don’t like the cold. What’s the point in being cold when you can be warm. That’s probably why I don’t ski. BUT, Colorado is pretty much the most wonderful place on earth and since we do get cold, we really appreciate the other 3 seasons. But right now, it’s straight up disgusting cold outside. It’s not pleasant. It hurts to breathe in, your hands freeze the second you go outside, and pretty much 70% of people got in car accidents on their way to work. Well, I have a different reason to hate the cold. So I bought a giant mirror yesterday. Human size. So I had the guys put it in my car safe and sound, and by the time I got home, it had cracked. It got so damn cold outside, that the mirror wouldn’t even keep it’s straight shape. So it’s cold either cost me $120 or 7 years back luck. Either way, it’s a real bummer.
But life isn’t worth sweating the small stuff, no sirry bob. Here’s a positive note. I put together a giant lamp yesterday without breaking it!! I may be speaking too soon, because I don’t have a light bulb to see if it actually works, so please keep your fingers crossed for me. If it doesn’t work, I’ll definitely throw it across the room. Or at the broken mirror. I can’t earn any more years of bad luck anyways.
I leave for Vegas tomorrow. THANK.GOSH. Once I have a mirror that isn’t broken, I was thinking about posting pictures of all the outfits I plan on packing. I used to look at Julie from PB Fingers fashion page all the time because she would post her weekly work outfits and night out dresses and absolutely loved seeing the cute outfits she came up with and where she got it at. So I might just do that. If you don’t care about that and just want to see food, LUCKY YOU, I will have a recipe to go along with it, so you can just skip Vegas dresses. I promise they won’t be hoe-ish though, it’s too cold for hoe.
Oh. And I’m really craving eggs and jam right now. Yeah, jam. Sounds so good. That is all. Ktotesloveyoubye.
Please stop hating me for saying totes.

I love your blog Julie..seriously if I’m having a bad day your posts always cheer me up. These look amazing I miss waffles!! But do you think they would still be okay if I left the protein powder out all together?
No they need some other kind of binder
OMG you’re going to be in Vegas at the same time as me! I leave Sunday!
If I see you, I’ll try to stay calm. I promise.
These look amazing! I don’t have any applesauce though. Is there an alternative I could use instead?
Mashed bananas or squash purée
OMG!!!! I have been craving waffles, AND my friend just gave me a waffle iron last night…Yay! I can’t wait to try these.
Also just wanted to say Ive tried a few of your recipes just this week and they are all AMAZING!! THANK YOU!
Holleey shitballs these look amazing. Love your work.
You are my hero! Transitioning to Paleo has been so much easier thanks to you and all of the fabulous things that you cook. This recipe looks like it is going to satisfy my breakfast cravings! Thank you!
From the bottom of my heart I thank you for these. Paleo breakfasts for my boys can be hard. They devoured these and were surprised they were paleo. You rock my world!
OMG I love you! I’ve been looking for something I can make for breakfast (since I have to be at work at freakin’ FOUR INTHE MORNING) and these are perfect. Make them ahead of time, then spread them with almond butter and a drizzle of honey in the morning and out the door. You’re awesome, and my gluten-free insides thank you 🙂
Leftover waffles (day 2) with warm almond butter and whipped cream. Errrmehgerrd. Best.thing.ever. Thank you!
Replacing protein powder with coconut flour 1:1 did not make light or crispy waffles. I’m not sure what the batter is supposed to be like, but it was like cookie dough. I’d try something else if you don’t want protein powder.
