A warm and satisfying breakfast is a great way to start a winter day. While getting up at the crack of dawn to mix up a batch of homemade waffles is certainly an industrious way to welcome in a brand new morning, it is not always in the cards. Eggo Chocolate Chip Waffles are a terrific alternative.
This frozen breakfast item is readily available at grocery stores, warehouse clubs and discount department stores that offer a perishable food section. The regular retail price for a twelve point three ounce box is $2.49. I have occasionally caught this item for as low as $1.79. Considering that there are ten full size waffles in the box, even the full price is an excellent bargain.
I love how quick and easy it is to cook up these waffles. They can be cooked in a traditional oven or in the toaster. After heating the oven to four hundred degrees, the waffles are baked for only five minutes on a cookie sheet. That very short amount of time results in a meal that is very hot, crispy and delicious. An even more convenient cooking method is by using a standard two slot toaster. Two cycles at the lowest setting produce an equally warm and tasty waffle breakfast.
A two waffle serving contains two hundred and ten calories. There is seven grams of Total Fat, with two point five grams of Saturated Fat. Although there is no Trans Fat in this frozen food, there is fifteen milligrams of Cholesterol. Those on a low or reduced Sodium diet should be aware that two waffles contains three hundred and eighty milligrams. Additionally, there is thirty two grams of Total Carbohydrate, one gram of Dietary Fiber, nine grams of Sugar and four grams of Protein. There is some nutritional gains from this frozen breakfast food. A serving offers ten percent of Vitamin A, four percent of Calcium and ten percent of Iron. Ten percent of Vitamin B6 and ten percent of Vitamin B12 is also gained from indulging in this morning meal. A full list of essential vitamins and minerals contained in this product can be found on the back of the box.
Fresh fruit, butter, syrup, confectioner’s sugar and a dollop of whipped cream are tasty condiments to add to this frozen food item. If sweet and salty is your thing, the waffles can be used to sandwich an egg and a piece of ham or pork roll. Using this product as a base, the possibilities for a tasty and filling breakfast are simply endless.
I would definitely score Eggo Chocolate Chip Waffles a full five star rating. The product is easy to prepare, is very tasty and definitely affordable. There is an ample amount of chocolate chips in every serving, which bumps up the flavor enormously. This is one frozen breakfast item that will be in my family’s freezer all winter long.
