Make French toast and waffles 2-in-1 for breakfast. No need to mix waffle batter or stand over a frying pan. Simply place the bread, soaked in a mixture of milk, eggs, and cinnamon, onto the waffle iron, close, and it will instantly brown evenly on all sides. Serve the waffles with a quick blueberry-maple sauce and a sprinkle of toasted almonds. Wash it down with a refreshing carrot-ginger smoothie made with low-fat yogurt. All the flavors blend harmoniously and will give you a great morning.

• 4 slices of whole grain bread

• 5 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 tbsp chopped ginger

Preparation:

Step 1
• Make a smoothieIn a blender, combine the yogurt, 1.5 cups of ice, carrots, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and ginger and blend until smooth. Pour evenly into four glasses and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Step 2
• Prepare the sauceIn a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the blueberries and the remaining 3 tablespoons maple syrup. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the blueberries pop, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
• Preheat a waffle iron and lightly spray with cooking spray. In a baking dish, whisk together the milk, egg, cinnamon, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt. Dip a slice of bread on each side in the mixture for a few seconds. Place the waffles in the iron, close, and cook until golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Transfer the finished waffles to a plate and keep warm, covered with foil. Repeat with the remaining bread.
Step 4
• Divide the waffles evenly among four plates, drizzle with blueberry sauce, and sprinkle with almonds. Serve with carrot-ginger smoothie.
