My kids love to have high-carb, sweet breakfasts (pancakes, cold cereal). I prefer that they have something higher in protein to get a good nutritional start on the day, but I also fall prey to needing something that can be served quickly. These waffles (from a Cuisinart waffle iron recipe but adapted to be healthier) cover all the bases: my kids see them as a "treat" breakfast, they're full of protein and whole grains, and they're a fast weekday breakfast. I often make a double batch, freezing all and toasting as needed.
