  • 1 tbsp light mayo optional
  • 1 slice american cheese optional
  • 4 pieces turkey bacon cooked

Instructions

  • To make the chaffle:
    Preheat your mini waffle maker or mini pancake maker. In a small mixing bowl whisk egg until beaten. Add cheddar cheese and stir to combine.
  • When waffle or pancake maker is heated, carefully pour batter in and close the top. Allow to cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully remove from waffle or pancake maker and set aside to cool off or crisp up if using waffle maker. Repeat instructions for second chaffle.

    Use 2 slices of whole grain bread or a whole grain English muffin. Toast until crispy. Add your slice of american cheese. Half on each side until melted.
  • Meanwhile, heat a non-stick pan to medium heat and cook turkey bacon until crispy. Remove and place on a plate lined with a paper towel to soak up any extra grease.
  • Spread the mayo onto the pieces of toast and layer with sliced avocado, cooked turkey bacon, tomato, and spinach. ENJOY!
